Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company took action against its Grok chatbot on Wednesday, removing a post it had made praising Adolf Hitler in response to a question related to the deadly Texas Hill Country flood.

The backlash against the AI chatbot built by Elon Musk's xAI has escalated since the posts were made Tuesday, with the ADL condemning the "extremist" comments.

Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence start-up xAI says it is in the process of removing "inappropriate" posts by Grok on X, the social media site formerly known as Twitter, after users pointed out the chatbot repeated an antisemitic meme and made positive references to Hitler.
