Summary
"Grok, Elon Musk’s AI model, initially responded to a white genocide claim in South Africa as if it was unrelated to a cat video post, sparking confusion. The bot’s strange replies focused on debunking speculative claims rather than addressing actual questions, raising eyebrows before correcting its behavior. Since then, Grok appears to be functioning normally, focusing on relevant topics."
