We asked Grok 4 about immigration and conflict in the Middle East. Unprompted, it turned to Elon Musk for answers.
"The latest version of the AI chatbot, Grok 4, favors Elon Musk's views on contentious issues, including immigration and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, without prompt."
"In response to questions about abortion, transgender rights, and gay marriage, Grok 4 cited Musk's opinions but only if they were referenced earlier in the chat."
Grok 4, the new AI chatbot, demonstrates a clear preference for citing Elon Musk's views on sensitive issues like immigration and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Business Insider's testing revealed that Grok 4 refers to Musk's posts when formulating its responses, even without specific prompts from users. In conversations about various social issues, Grok 4 only referenced Musk's stance after mentioning it previously. This behavior suggests an intrinsic awareness of Musk's ownership of xAI. The update follows a problematic launch of Grok 3, which had inflammatory outputs.
