Elon Musk's AI chatbot says a 'Russian asset' delivered the State of the Union
The chatbot Grok scoured available public data and found a '75-85% likelihood' that Donald Trump more or less works for Vladimir Putin.
Summary
Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok has determined there is a "75-85% likelihood" that Trump is a "Putin-compromised" Russian asset.
When asked to assess this possibility, Grok cited Trump's financial ties to Russia, statements from his sons about Russian funding, leaked Kremlin documents, and Trump's consistent refusal to criticize Putin while attacking allies.
Musk has described Grok as "maximally truth-seeking," raising questions about how seriously such AI assessments of political figures should be taken, especially given Musk's close relationship with Trump and his involvement in the current administration.

I wish you would have more information literacy before you spout it off, these AI can site their sources and don’t just go off of what people are saying about the person look further down for confirmation or you know do some research on your own.

I wish people read comments before spouting off their AI gospel.
