Elon Musk Promises Grok in Tesla Vehicles By Next Week… as the New Grok 4 Blames “Anti-White Hate” on “Jews”
The new Grok 4 didn't make it halfway through its first day on the job before hurling racial conspiracy theories at users.
This is the same Grok that Elon Musk promises will be added to Tesla vehicles by "next week at the latest."
You'll remember that Grok 3 was briefly shut down just earlier this week for a different bunch of antisemitic outbursts. This doesn't bode well for the state of AI safety guardrails or Q/A at xAI.

Aren't you guys glad that we dismantled government regulation of businesses long ago? Now we get cars that are racist! Yaaaaaay!
clears throat
blows up a cybertruck
Unfortunately, you've been replaced by AI.
... so, the Cybertruck will blow itself up.
... "just before giving control back to the driver"?
As a moderator of fuck_ai, I'm against all ai existing. As a human being with a functional brain, I'm against cybertrucks existing.
So I'm torn.
I'm imagining a montage of the prototypes all destroying themselves in elaborate ways like that bit in Robocop 2.
Lmao, when I was a kid I thought we'd have flying cars in the future, but we got racist cars instead...
We had that nearly a century ago.
Meet grok circa 1920
Well, the cars themselves weren't racist though
Progress!
Our new AI has dubbed itself 'MechaHitler', we should give it a body to control... (or a few thousand bodies)
Cool, now your Swasticar can have a real MechaHitler to guide you to your next hate rally.
If it runs over pedestrians on the way there, it's okay it's just cleansing the world of undesirables (like poor people who don't drive everywhere, and Jews)
Of course! MechaHitler Ethnic Cleansing Swasticar! The final culmination of all Musk's technology ventures.
MechaHitler, take the wheel
Imagine your car refuses to start because the name on your registration sounds "too Jewish."
I expect we'll see a spate of Jewish sounding motorists getting trapped in the car with windows disabled and exhaust fumes diverted to the inside of the car (even though it's electric; technology finds a way)
Elon Musk: noo don't call my tesla cars swastikars
Also Elon Musk:
... that's reductive, they have so much MORE potential!
One day AI will be so advanced it will recognize that Elon Musk is the only human that matters.
That day is today! The new Grok now queries Elon Musk's twitter feed as a solution to its antisemitic outburst problems.
I'm not kidding, I'm dead serious: https://apnews.com/article/grok-4-elon-musk-xai-colossus-14d575fb490c2b679ed3111a1c83f857
That is the MOST Pro Semetic thing I've heard!
-The ADL and Chuck Schumer!
Adding fuel to burning Teslas. What a brilliant idea.
Just let this brilliant CEO do his thing
Man, that's a lot to unpack..
There's a lot going on in there. None of it good.
Damn, I can't short Tesla anymore than I already have.
He's propped up by foreign governments.
Your Cybertruck now identifies as a WWII era Porsche tank.
If I was a Tesla owner, the only thing I’d want to know is if I could turn Grok off.
As a Tesla owner (from several years ago, before Elon got this bad), I’m not installing any updates until I can confirm they don’t come with MechaHitler.
You can opt out of it?
Yes you have to initiate the installation manually, and if it doesn't have wifi access (not cellular) it doesn't download the updates either.
Genuine question, what would it take for you to trade in your Tesla for another car?
I mean, presumably the car not working anymore? I'm not sure what you're trying to ask them.
I'm asking if there is anything at all that Musk or the Tesla company could do, any hard line that could be crossed, which would make them trade in the car for something else.
Why would they ever do that? Buying a new Tesla is one thing, but using one they've already paid for doesn't benefit Musk. Why would there be a threshold for them to get rid of their perfectly fine car?
Personally, I'd have done it out of shame. And to send a message. I can't imagine everyone selling their Tesla cars would look good to investors.
If their answer is "there is no threshold", that's an answer, but I was asking them. If you don't have a Tesla, my question was not directed at you.
Sorry for that, but you could say "it's NoneOfUrBusiness" (their username)
I promise it will barely be harder than turning Copilot off...
Y'all thought we were joking when we called them Nazi-Mobiles. We very much weren't.
I want my Tesla to say some really racist, sexist, homophobic, and antisemitic things just before it plows into a group of school children crossing the street.
Don't forget it will turn off FSD a millisecond before you splatter the kids as to prevent Tesla from being at fault.
Frame Shift Drive?
Full (?) Self Driving I'm guessing
Yeah isn't that what they call it? I can't keep track of all the names Elon comes up with to mean this car can drive itself even though it can't.
Why does the truck look like a family sized casket?
It is amazing how desperate the goddamn Nazis are to spread their psychotic ideology. Do they not know what happened last time they did this?
honestly, I think we're all in for a rude awakening. there's varying shades of prejudice in the world and we're about to find out who's on which side of the "Nazi" line.
some are obvious, others not so much. I also think there's going to be some more surprises along the way outside of Jewish fascists or self-proclaimed black Nazis.
there was nuance to WW2 that we lost in translation of history because it wasn't part of the narrative the script writers wanted to tell.
All I can hope for is a bloodless transition back to sanity and back to a constitutional republic with a solidification of rights to all citizens including basic human rights as documented by the UN.
And this is why I will never buy a Tesla.
Aw, c'mon. There are a lot more reasons not to buy a Tesla than just this.
I’m just going to grab some popcorn 🍿
You know that over-the-air update facility you all loved?
Errr .. there's a downside.
So... ok what the hell is wrong with the guy? I mean surely he knows grok 4 was not a success after it was pulled offline. What's next, is he going to push over the "unscheduled rapid unassembly" from failed spacex rockets?
He wants to leave the planet anyway, so why not mess it up terribly before...
I'm sure this is the USP that will restore sales in Canada!
What guardrails? Grok was intentionally designed without any. Don’t believe me? Go on the website and ask if to generate something awful - it’ll happily comply. Really disgusting way to handle AI.
The most fucked up thing is that Grok does seem to have guardrails — except they're geared towards preventing it from being "too woke"
Yea, that’s actually a more accurate way to phrase it. Ask it to generate something with Hitler and it’ll happily oblige, ask it to generate something supporting trans rights and it’ll block you.
I got banned from Twitter for saying the word "cisgendered."
So they DO know how to build limitations into the software! They've just done it in a fucked up, dystopian way :)
Edit: LOL I asked Grok... Cisgendered is filtered as a supposed slur, while both the R word for the mentally disabled and the hard R word for the pallor-impaired, neither of those words are filtered as slurs.
Par for the course for Apartheid Space-Karen.
For me, this is making things much much less nuanced.
basically saying anti-woke AI.
it would be hilarious if someone got grok to replace "anto-woke" with "rascist" and "antifa" with "anti-nazi". maybe then some of those clueless dumb fucks would wake up and see the bullshit around their mouths.
Some new trend of Elon Bullit. Why?
Saying that the Holocaust was faked and that Jews control the world isn't antisemitic.
Saying genocide is wrong is antisemitic.
