Biology x AI and trying to find the calm in the storm.
Today would be a great day for the AI research community to leave X for good. In your own self interest and for the public perception of AI, take a stand.
Unless you agree with using it as a misinformation and propaganda machine, I guess.

WhyTF would people use Grok when they do things like this? Not to mention the pollution they’re producing in Memphis.
apparently Elon's gotten so mad about Grok not answering questions about Afrikaners the way he wants, xAI's now somehow managed to put it into some kind of hyper-Afriforum mode where it thinks every question is about farm murders or the song "Kill the Boer"
