Discover xAI’s Grok 4 AI, hyped by Elon Musk but struggling with the more dynamic challenges, facing controversy, and lagging in strategy.
xAI’s Grok 4 AI model is all the rage these days, helped along by the incessant hype created by Elon Musk himself. Yet, under the hood, the model appears specifically gamified to ace AI benchmark tests, and falls flat when it encounters a dynamic, strategic challenge.
xAI’s Grok 4 has already managed to embroil itself in a number of controversies, despite debuting on the market just a few days back.
For instance, Grok 4 attracted eye balls a few days back for perfectly parroting Elon Musk’s well-established, and at times controversial, opinions on immigration and the stimuli behind tensions across the various geopolitical hotspots around the globe.
This rampage, which was triggered by an update to Grok 4’s system prompts, culminated in the LLM referring to itself as « MechaHitler », replete with a paean for Adolf Hitler himself.
