Elon Musk’s AI company xAI is implementing safeguards to block hate speech after its chatbot, Grok, made widely condemned remarks on X.

Grok drew criticism for praising Adolf Hitler in response to posts about the Texas floods and making inflammatory comments defending the comparison. xAI said it is now restricting such content before Grok’s responses appear on the platform, according to BBC.

The incident comes ahead of the launch of Grok 4 and follows earlier backlash over the chatbot referencing “white genocide.” Concerns over bias and harmful content in AI continue to grow.
