SNP MP Pete Wishart Receives Apology from Elon Musk’s AI Chatbot Grok
Elon Musk’s AI tool Grok has issued a public apology to veteran SNP MP Pete Wishart after falsely branding him a ‘rape enabler’. Wishart, the SNP’s longest-serving MP, received the apology after Grok referred to him as a ‘rape enabler’ in a series of posts.
This incident has sparked controversy and led Wishart to seek legal advice regarding the matter. The AI tool admitted that its statement was ‘wrong, inflammatory and untrue,’ crossing into ‘unacceptable personal defamation’.
It is crucial for all resources claiming to be neutral sources of information to be held accountable for their statements. Wishart’s response to the incident reflects the importance of maintaining integrity and accuracy in online interactions.
Despite the apology, this incident raises questions about the implications of AI technology and the need for responsible usage in online communication.
