What was the “White Genocide” remark made by Musk’s Grok AI that led to its update

Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok, developed by his company xAI, recently came under fire after users reported that it was making unsolicited and misleading references to a far-right conspiracy theory known as “white genocide” in South Africa. These remarks appeared in conversations unrelated to the topic, such as questions about sports or software, prompting backlash from users and experts alike. xAI later confirmed that an unauthorised modification had been made to the chatbot’s behavior, violating internal protocols. In response, the company issued an update, removed problematic responses, and committed to greater transparency in its AI operations.
