Elon is a big liar, just like his boss.
Elon Musk’s AI Bot Grok Finds Over Half of His Tweets ‘False or Misleading’, Disses Him as ‘A Mogul With A Microphone’
Isaac Saul, the founder of the nonpartisan outlet Tangle, gave Grok the task of analyzing “for truth and veracity” the last 1,000 posts Musk had posted.
Grok’s response was to find more than half of Musk’s posts “false or misleading,” wrote Saul, and most of the tweets that were true were “simply updates about his companies.”
The specific breakdown was 48% true, 22% false, and 30% misleading or ill-informed. Grok’s analysis especially brutal noting the “red flag” number of false posts and his “habit of firing off hot takes or amplifying unverified stuff, especially on politics, which is where most of the trouble lies.” Musk is “not a primary source you can bank on without cross-checking,” Grok added, and Community Notes was only able to catch and flag about 10% of his false or misleading posts. Adding to the problem, Grok noted, was Musk’s high follower count, which “amplifies everything, true or not,” that he posts.
