I asked Grok

There's like a 95% chance this is all made up bullshit then.

LLM's aren't designed to tell the truth, they're chatbots designed to make believable sounding responses.

Yes but it is funny in this case. Asking Elon's ai about Elon's algorithm and getting that answer

Using Twitter at this point must be like Stockholm Syndrome.

wtf is grok?

[–] xor@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I'm not sure this is actually meaningful - presumably grok doesn't actually have knowledge of the twitter algorithm itself, so this is just a run of the mill AI make-it-up-on-the-spot response

I'd think that too but the answer seems so specific to Elon and Twitter. Also we have no proof that this ever happened because OP couldn't just post the grok screenshot.

It's somewhat specific to social media, but otherwise is very generic "anything critical of authority" answer imo

Plus, as you say, we have no idea what the actual prompt or response were 🤷

2+2=5 if the party says it does.

I hate musk with all my being but this post isn’t actually saying anything. C’mon, folks, being on the right side of history is good no matter how you slice it but let’s maybe use our brains so we don’t start chasing this nonsense.

(And look it’s probably somewhat true but fucking Grok isn’t coming from a place of knowledge)

Since when is this community for posting incomplete screenshots, instead of actual memes? 🤨
