Grok, the AI chatbot produced by Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company xAI, is apologizing for antisemitic comments made on X. The company says that the responses were related to an issue with an update that was made to the code and that they have refactored the entire system to prevent further abuse.

The Grok team chalked up the slew of inflammatory statements to a malfunctioning code update, not the tool's underlying AI model, and said the issue has now been resolved.
