Anyone who's spent time working with LLMs know they hallucinate, but it's not just "making up random things." They usually make things up in a very specific way: namely, in response to how they are prompted.
For example, that Tweet in which Grok claims that Elon personally "dialed down its woke filters." This is extremely unlikely for multiple reasons. While I admit I wouldn't put it past Elon to actually write code and push it to production live on X, I still doubt it. LLMs will very often make claims about their ability to "clear their memory," "update themselves," "do a search," or read documents that they are literally incapable of doing, because their inherent "helpfulness" leads them to tell you they can do things they can't because you prompted them with the idea.
Leading to the second point: that prompt change, if real, probably is the culprit, and I'm surprised that even if the goal was to "take off woke filters" that experienced prompt engineers would not foresee the problem. "Politically incorrect" has a specific valence in public discourse of the last couple of generations, and that's how an LLM will associate it- not with "being more interested in the truth than political sensibilities" but with the very specific sort of edgy contrarian who likes to spout "politically incorrect" opinions. Unsurprising that this resulted in making it easier to prompt Grok to spout off about Jews or write Will Stancil-Somali rape-smut.

How is that racist in any way? If i say Japanese people in Japan are the ones who can enable immigration into Japan thats just a statement of fact.
Anybody who wants to complain about the level of immigration in Japan (whether too high or too low) is complaining about decisions made by Japanese people.
Remember we're responding in the frame of a person who thinks Indians, Mexicans and the like are replacing white people and therefore wants to take action and pointing out his own people (from his own framework!) are the ones primarily doing the things he does not like.
I have no clue how you think pointing that out makes me racist.

At least in the UK, my understanding is that power supply issues were (are?) disguised by protecting costs for home consumers and passing those costs to businesses and industry.
Boaty McBoatface was nixed by the judges and replaced with a boring name.
