  • Grok, an AI model from Elon Musk’s xAI, sent strange responses on X, focusing on debunking white genocide claims in South Africa even in unrelated posts.
  • Grok repeatedly emphasized that claims of white genocide in South Africa lack credible evidence, citing official data and court rulings.
  • The AI’s responses have since been fixed to address the actual queries, but X has not commented on the issue.
  • The incident followed news of Afrikaners receiving refugee status under a Trump executive order, which cited alleged genocide—a claim Grok disputed.
