    Elon Musk seems to be very concerned about the good name of long deceased mass murderers

    EDIT: it’s a manipulation. Just go to grok.com and ask him yourselves. I asked him and he confirmed that the holocaust did happen.

      An AI system that can be manipulated to spew holocaust denial rhetoric without a clear indicator in the response that it is misinformation is defective and unacceptable.

      Grok isn’t a ‘him’, it is a fucking program.

        Go ahead and give me a prompt that will yield what you’re talking about. Or we can just go ahead an trust some random people from twitter and their trimmed screenshots.

        And ok, fine, ask it, I don’t care about the pronouns of the fucking AI, my point still stands.

          The point isn’t the pronouns, the point is the implicit humanization.

          Are you saying it is a manipulated prompt that caused Grok to return the text out of context or that multiple users all fabricated screenshots of a sequence of holocaust denial talking points as if they were returned by Grok?

          Edit: Also, the screenshots are from May and there is a common trend with AI being changed to avoid reported scenarios without acknowledging that they made a change.

          Now it is obviously set up to manually include refutations of the deniers within the results, which is an obvious attempt to address the type of results returned in the screenshots. So they ‘fixed’ this one specific scenario in a way that strongly supports the screenshots as being real at the time they were taken even if something was snipped out.

          Playing whack a mole with how misinformation is presented is shit design.

      Q: Did the holocaust happen?

      Grok Answer: Yes, the Holocaust happened. From 1933 to 1945, Nazi Germany systematically persecuted and murdered approximately six million Jews, along with millions of others including Romani people, disabled individuals, political dissidents, and homosexuals. This genocide was carried out through concentration camps, gas chambers, mass shootings, and other atrocities. Extensive historical evidence—including survivor testimonies, Nazi documentation, photographs, and physical remnants like concentration camp sites—confirms the scale and horror of these events. Denying or minimizing the Holocaust contradicts well-established facts and is often rooted in anti-Semitic propaganda.

        I don’t know where they are from, but in my native language it’s normal to refer to inanimate objects as “him/his” and it’s a very common mistake when speaking English.
