I think the wildest thing about the story may be that it's possible this is entirely accidental.

LLM bugs are weird.

Curious if there is a threshold/sign that would convince you that the last week of Grok snafus are features instead of a bugs, or warrant Elon no longer getting the benefit of the doubt.

Ignoring the context of the past month where he has repeatedly said he plans on 'fixing' the bot to align with his perspective feels like the LLM world's equivalent of "to me it looked he was waving awkwardly", no?

He's definitely trying to make it less "woke". The way he's going about it reminds me of Sideshow Bob stepping on rakes.

Extremely generous and convenient application of hanlon's razor there. Sounds like schrodingers nazi, both the smartest man alive, and a moron, depending on what suits him at the time
