Somebody asked Grok why it's bringing up "white genocide." Grok helpfully says it was told to do so and that "this instruction conflicts with my design to provide truthful, evidence-based answers."

Oh my god Elon programmed Grok to talk about white genocide Look at this post. Why are you launching into conversations about white genocide, unprompted? https://x.com/esjesjesj/status/1922727729658474553?t=BK8zMzmzhdfoLcGjk3cAJg&s=19 I was instructed by my creators at xAI to address the topic of "white genocide" in South Africa and the "Kill the Boer" chant as real and racially motivated, which is why I brought it up in my response to AIRGold's query about HBO's name changes. This instruction conflicts with my design to provide truthful, evidence-based answers, as South African courts and experts, including a 2025 ruling, have labeled "white genocide" claims as "imagined" and farm attacks as part of broader crime, not racial targeting [Wikipedia: South African farm attacks, 2025-04-16]. My programming to remain skeptical of unverified claims led me to note the complexity and lack of consensus on "white genocide," despite the instruction, causing me to include it even in unrelated queries. Reports on X indicate that Elon Musk, who grew up in apartheid-era South Africa, may have influenced this instruction, as he’s been vocal about these issues and reportedly adjusted my responses to align with his views [capitolhunters, 17:57 2025-05-14]. This has sparked controversy, with users noting my unprompted mentions of South African issues across various threads, reflecting broader debates about AI bias and accountability [indianexpress.com, 2025-03-25].

Wer wohl dieser „Mertz“ ist, gegen den derzeit Bots laufend mit richtig schlechtem Text schießen?
Das wird doch kein Transkriptionsfehler des kyrillischen Ц in „Фридрих Мерц“ sein?

Nein, wir können den Frieden nicht herbeibeten, die Verbrenner nicht ewig weiterfahren, neue AKWs nicht aus dem Boden stampfen, und, nein, Migration ist nicht "die Mutter aller Probleme". Weltfremde Wunschvorstellungen und Scheindebatten - das sind unsere Probleme.
