A viral false claim tied Cindy Steinberg to an anti-Semitic post by @Rad_reflections. She denied it; the account, using her name, has since been deleted.

Elon Musk announced this weekend that his team at xAI made improvements to their AI chatbot Grok. Days later, Grok has already gone on several blatantly antisemitic tirades.

In response, X mostly turned off Grok, and the chatbot’s official account claimed that “xAI has taken action to ban hate speech before Grok posts on X.” The next day, CEO Linda Yaccarino announced she was stepping down but also leaked that of course it had nothing to do with the platform’s omnipresent assistant calling for genocide.
