Twitter has what is effectively a built-in AI with the name Grok,
which is run by a company also owned by Elon Musk called XAI.
And the main function of Grok is that if you see a tweet in the world that you don't understand,
you don't get the joke,
you're not sure that the claim being made in the tweet is true, you can tag Grok in.
You say, at Grok, is this true?
At Grok, what's the joke?
At Grok, show me some context.
And Grok will.
It will get it right sometimes and it will get it wrong sometimes.
And we'll get it kind of right sometimes, again,
in the way that a lot of us are familiar with chat GPT.
Last week, starting on Wednesday, every time you asked Grok a question,
regardless of what the question was about,
Grok would bring up white genocide and the South African anti-apartheid song Kill the Boer for reasons that were totally unclear based on any of those responses.
What's up, y'all?
It's Kenny Beach,
and we are currently watching the best playoff basketball since I can't even remember when.
This is what we've been waiting for all season long.
