No. Per Oxford Languages…

The examples cited in the article were, in my opinion, neither accurate nor plausible.

In this case, I would say, LLMs lie.

In a fair article there would be some attempt to compare it to the competitors. I'm willing to be convinced that Grok is worse but this doesn't try. And because of the fluidity of the news, if they are not queried at about the same time with the same prompt, they're not comparable, so it's already too late to fix this for this event.
