Hilarious how Grok apologizes for going off-topic further down in the thread, but then can't resist the urge to immediately bring up white genocide again.

Then someone asks it to just answer the original question but it ignores the query entirely and writes another wall of text about white genocide.

Then when asked yet again it seems to use the tweet it was originally asked to verify as a source to verify itself.

A+ work all around



You know, with Grok, the more I learn about that guy, the more I don't care for him.

This is a prime indication that the bit about "white genocide" comes from the prompt. The model itself knows that it is bullshit from its training, though, and with a smart enough model, when there's a contradiction between the prompt and the training, the latter will generally win in the long run.
