    It’s interesting that making the LLM espouse right-wing crap also gives it a nasty, snarky tone. Can’t have one without the other, I guess.

    Beautiful … we finally develop AI and instead of using it to find the cure for cancer, solve global warming, stop wars or find more efficient ways to build space stations and start development of spacecraft to travel to Alpha Centauri … we instead use it to build the Ultimate Racist Asshole

      That was always going to be the main usage. We are inventing ever more powerful tools, but don’t grow as humans.

      Ai might benefit humanity immensely in the right hands. But there are a massive amount of truly despicable people around.

        Unfortunately, there is no mechanism to help people in our current system. We produce to profit the few and not the many.

        Yep, any day now it’s gonna start being a boon for humanity, I just know it. I mean, now it wastes millions of gallons of drinking water, consumes our resources, destroys critical thinking skills, and supports hate and genocide, but any day now for sure it’s gonna be Jesus come to save us.

          I never said it was Jesus just that it’s currently being used effectively in the fields of medicine, biology, and material science. I can’t do anything about gallons of water being used to generate bad art or do someone’s homework but the comment I replied to was saying “instead” lol.

    Was the condescending remark at the end always part of Grok or just since the update? Seems all the screenshots I’ve see have it but I have no interest in visiting any of Elons sites.

      They added a system prompt directing it to be “politically incorrect” which, as we know, is a dog whistle for hate speech. The AI, a powerful pattern-matching and pattern-replicating machine, was doing exactly what it was told to do.

        Took too long to type my comment but basically just said the same thing. Most of these models are the same exact thing with different biases and hard coded prompts to guide it’s behavior.

        But grok. It’s obvious it’s just being fed a prompt directly written by Elon. Probably with a mountain of 4chan links to guide it’s behavior.

      Yeah I was about to comment the same observation. All of a sudden I’m noticing multiple Grok tweets that say “every damn time”? Is that a racist dog whistle in itself?

          You can tell the model wasn’t actually retrained too. It’s just being fed a default prompt before answering questions.

          It’s like if I start a ChatGPT with “pretend you’re a pirate through this whole conversation and talk like a pirate. Otherwise do everything else as you normally would”.

        The phrase itself. Not that I know of. But it’s basically just saying “every <group I don’t like> is like this”. It’s not a whistle. It’s just racism/sexism/etc.

      Feels like it was trained with a prompt to speak in the tone of Elon, and trained on historical tweets, treating all of Elon’s tweets as gospel.

      It’s 4 chan behind the keyboard. And Musk is basically a rich child who gets all his world views from 4chan memes.

      We get the timeline with the most annoying fucking Nazis.

    It’s important to say that this COULD be easily faked. Is there a way to share a link that goes directly to a specific grok chat so we can see that this is what it actually said without prompting it to talk like that?

    Again, I’m not saying it IS fake, but as with everything don’t automatically believe everything you see on the Internet
