During a project called "Skippy," tutors recorded themselves making facial expressions. It would help "give Grok a face," one engineer said.

The initiative hadn’t been planned to include xAI’s Grok model as recently as March, the former Pentagon employee said.

SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk said Baby Grok, a simplified AI chatbot designed for children, is coming next after the recent launch of Grok4 with advanced training capabilities.

This is the smartest AI in the world,” Musk said. He did not mention the chatbot’s viral posts praising Hitler and calling itself “MechaHitler.”

We take a deep dive into the advantages and controversies of Grok, and what sets it apart from other generative AI chatbots.

The announcement comes just days after Grok generated antisemitic responses and praised Hitler, which were later deleted.

AI explained why Grok 4 seemed to search for Elon Musk's opinions when asked about some hot-button topics.

Grok’s responses must come from ‘independent analysis,’ not Musk’s stated beliefs. xAI has offered a couple more fixes for “issues” with its Grok AI chatbot, promising it will no longer name itself “Hitler” or base its responses on searches for what xAI head Elon Musk has said.

Makers of the chatbot program Grok apologized for "horrific behavior that many experienced" after users reported multiple antisemitic responses.

Elon Musk on Wednesday teased a forthcoming male Grok companion from xAI, which already offers an anime waifu named Ani and a red panda named Rudi.

A bipartisan group of lawmakers sent a letter to Elon Musk, condemning him over xAI's failure to take "reasonable measures" against its chatbot's antisemitic responses
