  • On Wednesday, users noticed Elon Musk's xAI chatbot Grok repeatedly made irrelevant comments about 'white genocide' and South African farm attacks.
  • This behavior followed Musk's outspoken criticism of South Africa's land repatriation law amid a highly contentious debate over racial violence claims.
  • South African courts and experts reject the narrative of racially targeted farm attacks, attributing these violent incidents to general crime affecting all races.

  • The incident highlights tensions around the 'white genocide' claim, which lacks credible evidence, while Musk's chatbot glitch raises concerns about AI's handling of sensitive topics.
