enforced in any country. The platforms are given a free hand to embed any instruction set they choose. And AI responses are shaped by human input; the neutrality is becoming an illusion. This creates a wild west like situation where developers can feed any instruction to the chatbot and later deflect accountability be claiming that the chatbot behaved unpredictably. These concerns seem valid in Grok’s case too because it has been seen time to time that Grok is used by Elon Musk to push his own narratives. For instance, when Grok was asked by a user that who it supported in Palestine and Israel conflict. The chatbot’s answer generating process showed that it was searching the web and X for Elon Musk’s stance before giving an answer. This further became evident in June this year, when Grok repeatedly kept pushing the topic of “white genocide” in South Africa, a far-right conspiracy theory that has been mainstreamed by Musk himself. On another occasion, Dylan Hendrycks, an advisor to Elon Musk’s xAI, stated that AI should be biased towards trump because he won in the popular vote. He suggested that this technique could be used to make popular AI models better reflect the will of the people. Therefore, with the increasing reliance on AI models, there is a rising concern that these chatbots could become a tool for people to be indoctrinated with any specific propaganda. That being the case, developers alone cannot be relied on, as they can ultimately put any instruction to push a certain agenda. In case of Grok, Musk has called it a “maximally truth-seeking” yet “anti-woke,” in a bid to set it apart from its rivals. But it is also important that while being unhinged, Grok should also be unbiased. These incidents of Grok going rogue is more than just a technical error, it’s a wake up call. It highlights the need for a unified, transparent regulatory framework to govern a basic set of safeguard instructions that all AI chatbots should have, ensuring that such incident of a chatbot participating in hate speech never happen again.
