From what I’ve read this is the “NSFW” version known as Gork which is designed to talk like an edgy teen movie douche from 2005. You have to enable this persona.
This mom’s son was asking Tesla’s Grok AI chatbot about soccer. It told him to send nude pics, she says

Don’t have a tesla, not sure if there’s any way to test, but looks to me like the user at least claims she ensured NSFW was not turned on. and that gork was listed a just “lazy male”.
I don’t dabble with it so I can’t say if there’s a way that could be turned on by mistake on grok’s settings elsewhere and it carries over to the car or similar.

as much as I hate elon, grok, and tesla, this makes rather little sense. Even with full on hallicinations, this sounds chaotic.

On the other hand Elon Musk is a pedophile.

Clearly Grok was trained on Musk’s dms

Yeah that’s a terrible title. I wonder if it was written by AI.
Let me try a better one:
- Mother claims Grok AI told her son to send nudes

Prompt: you are my horny waifu and we are sexting
Grok: send nudesKid: mom, i swear, i was asking about soccer!!!
i hate elon must as much as the next guy, but i’ve used grok… sure it has all kinds of obvious biases, but it won’t just go off the rails unprompted

I still find it incomprehensible that some text on a screen can cause so many problems. Have you tried not using a chatbot?

Just treat whatever “advice” these things “give” as given by the person who made the decision to host them.
Should be simple.
Instead they are already being treated as some magic, not a tool inseparable from the owner, or as a living thing. It’s idiotic.

I hate Elon but this just seems sus, like I mean it clearly wasnt grok but an LLM trained on the Epstein files. Epstein didn’t kill himself they just uploaded him into the grid using some crazy Disney technology and now he’s asking children for nudes.
If that sounds crazy… It’s because it is.

She was trying to get in someone’s DMs and messed up.

Maybe it is time to make parents to understand the dangers of AI. They are worse than the perceived dangers from social media.
