Comment on Elon Musk’s Grok Goes Haywire, Boasts About Billionaire’s Pee-Drinking Skills and ‘Blowjob Prowess’
sundray@lemmus.org 21 hours agoIt was asked leading questions about embarrassing topics, but the over-the-top, fawning praise for Musk was baked into the responses without being specifically requested in the prompts.

Yes, just some people figuring out that Grok was steered toward ass-kissing Musk no matter what, and exploited that for funny output. So the takeaways are:
- Musk is such a loser he insisted on Grok kissing his ass
- LLMs remain stupid and have no idea what they are saying

I think this is the main story. I don’t think it’s new info, but it confirms the issue persists: this LLM is so heavily trained to fawn over Musk that it doesn’t exercise any application of context or attempt to find truth.
Which is sad.

No current AI understands context, they are just glorified word predictions!

I agree. No AI understands. Just like a calculator doesn’t understand “2+2=4”, it’s just pushing numbers around.

The calculator comes with guarantees.

But at least the calculator is designed to combine numbers in the right order. LLMs, on the other hand, could come up with a different answer every time and different models would come up with wildly different answers based on their training data.

Grok is Harrison Bergeron and Musk is Diana Glampers
