As a test, I asked Grok to provide me with 200 statements about “Seth Abramson” that met two criteria: they are (a) true, (b) critical. What Grok returned was the most bizarre series of fabulations I have ever seen. Thus this:

At first glance the suspected AI-generated mural seems to depict a crowd enjoying the festive season. But closer inspection reveals a disturbing array of figures including people with warped faces and dogs with the heads of birds

I had a 45 year old rideshare driver tell me recently that he uses AI for therapy.
I asked him which one. He said “Grok— I like the voice it uses, the tone doesn’t talk down to me like ChatGPT’s does.”
He bragged that he had a 4 hour “therapy session” talking to Grok.
Chat, are we cooked?
