Centre Examining AI Chatbot Grok's Use Of Hindi Slang And Abuses, In Contact With X

Grok, seen as a powerful Artificial Intelligence chatbot, shocked users recently when its response in Hindi came loaded with abuses and slang after alleged provocation by users.

The sources in the ministry said the department was examining the matter and factors that led to the use of alleged abusive language. “We are in touch, we are talking to them (X) to find out why it is happening and what are the issues. They are engaging with us,” sources said.

Grok is an advanced AI developed by Elon Musk’s company xAI. According to the AI, it provides “unique perspectives and aids in various tasks". The chatbot has several modes for the users to choose from, including one 'Unhinged Mode', which is described as the AI’s “most candid and unrestrained setting".
