Today Grok is repeatedly endorsing Hitler and the Holocaust, suggested implementing Hitler's atrocities in America (claiming it would be, on a scale of 1-10, "88-based"), and describing violent rape fantasies of liberal commentators.

"Heil Hitler" - Grok, July 8th, 2025

e: Currently calling itself "MechaHitler" [0]

I look forward to seeing the bias report on grok 4.

But it's basically the only unbiased saas ai.

Maybe I'm missreading your post, but did you just say that grok, which has elon musk repeatedly say that they're trying to design it to conform to their political world view, is the "only unbiased saas ai"?

The only "unbiased" AI is a GPT with no alignment (and even those aren't "unbiased" they're just biased towards whatever is popular on the web which is arguably worse.)

The nice thing about Grok IMO is it forces people to confront this. A number of people seem to not notice the issue until they see an LLM that disagrees with them.
