  If they lobotomize Grok into spouting nothing but far right propaganda , it’ll also completely trash whatever commercial potential it might have had.

  It’s in line with the one “skill” musk seems to have: find promising teams to “lead” and take the public credit for their work, then when the great teams’ work gets attention, that confirms musk’s idea that HE is the key creative and technical force, then he starts forcing the company to do things HIS way and the products start blowing up even more than usual.

  So we should be right about at that enshittification inflection point on Grok.

  (I guess it’s not really “enshittification” since it’s done for megalomaniacal reasons and not for profit-driven ones, but I liked the sound of it)
