Elon Musk said changes his xAI company made to Grok to be less politically correct had resulted in the chatbot being “too eager to please” and susceptible to being “manipulated.” That apparently led it to begin spewing out anti-Semitic and pro-Hitler comments on Musk’s X social platform Tuesday.

In the wake of Grok generating content praising Adolf Hitler, Musk has asserted that the bot was "manipulated" by user prompts.
