Musk's chatbot Grok under fire for praising Hitler, insulting Erdogan
Hindustan Times Noida
|July 10, 2025
Billionaire Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence chatbot Grok was under fire on Wednesday, for antisemitic comments, praising Hitler and insulting Islam in separate posts on the X platform.
One series of comments, which included insults directed at Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan led a court there to ban the posts in question.
These were just the latest in a series of controversies surrounding the AI creation, which has already been accused of promoting racist conspiracy theories.
Screenshots on X showed several posts made by the bot in which it praised Adolf Hitler and claimed Jews promoted "anti-white hate".
The chatbot, developed by Musk’s company xAI, was criticised by Jewish advocacy group Anti-Defamation League (ADL) for answering multiple user prompts with the questionable posts.
