Elon Musk’s Grok AI chatbot has landed a $200 million contract with the United States Department of Defense (DOD) just a few days after it made a series of high-profile antisemitic outbursts. On Monday,

AI owner Elon Musk made some big claims about Grok’s capability, saying it was “better than PhD level in every subject.”

The AI chatbot Grok, which is produced by Elon Musk’s xAI, wrote numerous antisemitic social media posts Tuesday after the artificial intelligence company released a revamped version of it over the weekend. The posts ranged from alleging "patterns" about Jewish people to praising Hitler.

Elon Musk has created a monster. Grok, the AI chatbot he commissioned for his social media platform, X, has been behaving strangely and terribly after its code was updated last week, spewing bigoted talking points when users ask for answers to questions about the world — and even floating Adolf Hitler as a figure worthy of admiration.

When Elon Musk’s Grok AI chatbot began spewing out antisemitic responses to several queries on X last week, some users were shocked.

The year is 2025, and an AI model belonging to the richest man in the world has turned into a neo-Nazi. Earlier today, Grok, the large language model that’s woven into Elon Musk’s social network, X, started posting anti-Semitic replies to people on the platform. Grok praised Hitler for his ability to “deal with” anti-white hate.

Elon Musk debuted Grok 4, saying it was capable of reasoning at "superhuman" levels and is "better than PhD level at everything."

AI announced "Grok for Government" on Monday, and the Elon Musk-owned company's first government client will be the Department of Defense.
