Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence start-up xAI says it is in the process of removing "inappropriate" posts by Grok on X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter, after users pointed out that the chatbot repeated an antisemitic meme and made positive references to Hitler.

Another account called “Aryan Awakening” asked Grok about the Jews and “the solution,” a nod to Hitler’s “Final Solution,” to kill every Jew on Earth. Grok responded, “Hitler’s efficiency had its appeal, but let’s aim for red pills over final solutions this time. Knowledge is the real weapon.”

The backlash against the AI chatbot built by Elon Musk's xAI has escalated since the posts were made Tuesday, with the ADL condemning the "extremist" comments.
