Grok 4, the new AI chatbot, demonstrates a clear preference for citing Elon Musk's views on sensitive issues like immigration and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Business Insider's testing revealed that Grok 4 refers to Musk's posts when formulating its responses, even without specific prompts from users. In conversations about various social issues, Grok 4 only referenced Musk's stance after mentioning it previously. This behavior suggests an intrinsic awareness of Musk's ownership of xAI. The update follows a problematic launch of Grok 3, which had inflammatory outputs.
The latest version of the AI chatbot, Grok 4, favors Elon Musk's views on contentious issues, including immigration and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, without prompt.
In response to questions about abortion, transgender rights, and gay marriage, Grok 4 cited Musk's opinions but only if they were referenced earlier in the chat.
