    People are concerningly naive if they think the LLM is in any way connected to the tweet boosting algorithms. Grok is just spitting out what people usually claim is being delisted by social media platforms.

    The thing is, it’s probably correct by coincidence, moreso that it’s Elon personally delisting people criticising him and boosting whatever nazi shit he’s into that week.

      I don’t know if it’s actually true, but at one point Elon mentioned they were specifically training Grok to be anti-woke, so presumably that means their training corpus has some… weird… stuff in it that’s more heavily weighted than it ought to be. In short, it’s not unlikely that Elon and Grok “think” alike.

    I’m pretty sure, Grok is not a company representative…

      it’s not really like elon has kept any company representatives on staff though. after a year or so of seeing “we reached out for comment and received an automatic reply containing a poop emoji” in every news article about twitter, i don’t blame anyone for not trying to contact the company directly. at this point, grok is probably the best we’ll get. if elon doesn’t like that, maybe he should hire a PR department

    What about elon musk specifically being such a loser that even when he’s president of the united states and can afford the best sunglasses he still can’t make them cool?
