I’ve never used Grok or had much experience with AI (as far as I know) , but this story sounds delicious, and if it’s accurate it goes to show how Elon just wants to look cool without actually accomplishing his goals. > **[MAGA Angry as Elon Musk's Grok AI Keeps Explaining Why Their Beliefs Are...](https://futurism.com/maga-grok-ai)** > > Far-right posters on Elon Musk's X keep getting frustrated by being confronted with a dose of reality after posing Grok questions. ---

Another article at Futurism says that Grok computes there’s a 75 to 85% chance Trump is a Russian asset. > **[Elon’s Grok Chatbot Calculates Probability That Trump Is a Russian Asset](https://futurism.com/grok-trump-russian-asset)** > > Elon Musk's "anti-woke" AI chatbot, Grok, seems to think there's a very high likelihood that Donald Trump is a Russian asset. ---

Hmmm, ChatGPT is more cautious in its estimate when I asked it to focus on ‘knowingly’ acting on Russia’s behalf: > **Probability Estimate (Based on Public Evidence Only):** > > Given all of this, if we had to assign a **rough probability** —without classified intelligence—it would likely fall much lower than the original broad estimate. I’d say something in the **30-55% range** that Trump knowingly acted in Russia’s interests rather than doing so unintentionally. Still, I can’t argue it! ---
