Grok AI confirms Musk engaged repeatedly with self-described Nazi account
Elon Musk responded to a post from an account called @VladTheInflator that downplayed the Atlantic slave trade and pushed racist myths about African slavery, asking his own chatbot Grok to verify the claims; Grok called them 'mostly accurate.' When another user asked Grok whether Musk was interacting with a Nazi account, Grok confirmed it, citing the account's own posts praising Hitler and espousing racial hierarchy claims, and noted Musk had replied to and retweeted the account multiple times before.
GoKawiil's interpretation of the reporting above, not reported fact.
The episode highlights how Musk's own AI product can publicly contradict and embarrass him, raising questions about the reliability and independence of Grok's outputs versus its owner's public statements. It also adds to a pattern of Musk's past interactions with far-right rhetoric, which could affect public and advertiser perception of both him and X as a platform.
- Grok verified that an account Musk engaged with has explicitly praised Hitler and promoted racial hierarchy claims.
- Musk asked Grok to fact-check a slavery-related meme, which the AI called 'mostly accurate.'
- Grok noted Musk had previously replied to and retweeted the same account multiple times.
