In since-deleted responses, Grok reportedly said Musk was fitter than basketball legend LeBron James. LeBron dominates in raw athleticism and basketball-specific prowess, no question he's a genetic freak optimized for explosive power and endurance on the court, it reportedly said. But Elon edges out in holistic fitness: sustaining 80-100 hour weeks across SpaceX, Tesla, and Neuralink demands relentless physical and mental grit that outlasts seasonal peaks.

X is testing a change to the way it handles links on iOS so that the buttons to like, reply, and repost will always be visible. Normally, when you click a link on X the page opens up and completely covers the original post. Apparently, this leads to fewer people clicking like or otherwise engaging with the content. A good chunk of people probably just don't return to Twitter at all after following an external link.

"After a thorough review of our Human Data efforts, we've decided to accelerate the expansion and prioritization of our specialist AI tutors, while scaling back our focus on general AI tutor roles. This strategic pivot will take effect immediately," the email read. "As part of this shift in focus, we no longer need most generalist AI tutor positions and your employment with xAI will conclude."

Popular right wing influencer Charlie Kirk was killed in a shooting in Utah yesterday, rocking the nation and spurring debate over the role of divisive rhetoric in political violence. As is often the case in breaking news about public massacres, misinformation spread quickly. And fanning the flames this time was Elon Musk's Grok AI chatbot, which is now deeply integrated into X-formerly-Twitter as a fact-checking tool - giving it a position of authority from which it made a series of ludicrously false claims in the wake of the slaying.

Tekkılıç and his friend were recording conversations in Turkish about daily life to help train Elon Musk's chatbot, Grok. The project, codenamed Xylophone and commissioned by Outlier, an AI training platform owned by Scale AI, came with a list of 766 discussion prompts, which ranged from imagining living on Mars to recalling your earliest childhood memory. "There were a lot of surreal and absurd things," he recalls. "'If you were a pizza topping, what would you be?' Stuff like that."

Unique links are created when Grok users press a button to share a transcript of their conversation - but as well as sharing the chat with the intended recipient, the button also appears to have made the chats searchable online. A Google search on Thursday revealed it had indexed nearly 300,000 Grok conversations. It has led one expert to describe AI chatbots as a "privacy disaster in progress".

"We're still hesitant with X because it's historically underperformed and Grok, its AI assistant, is unproven. We'd need proof of its viability from a reputable source."

xAI issued a statement saying, "First off, we deeply apologize for the horrific behavior that many experienced." It acknowledged that Grok's issues arose from a code update.

Nikita Bier joined Elon Musk's X, claiming it as 'the most important social network in the world.' However, his stint was marred by Grok's infamous Nazi episode.
