“The Daily Show” correspondent Ronny Chieng on Wednesday mocked billionaire Elon Musk after Grok, the artificial intelligence chatbot on his X platform, went on an antisemitic tear and praised Adolf Hitler in a number of shocking replies.
“At the end of the day, the person I feel worse for is Elon. I mean, he just wanted to improve his AI to help humanity and then somehow, completely by accident, it just went full Nazi on him,” Chieng said.
“Elon, my heart goes out to you,” he added, evoking Musk’s remarks during his widely condemned salute at an inauguration rally for President Donald Trump.
Earlier in the monologue, Chieng highlighted Musk’s issues with the chatbot last month after it told an X user that data indicated right-wing violence was “more frequent and deadly” than violence from left-wingers since 2016.
The billionaire claimed at the time that the bot was “parroting legacy media” and he was looking to fix it.
