Tech billionaire Elon Musk's artificial intelligence firm xAI issued a lengthy public apology via Grok's official X account on Saturday for the antisemitic remarks made by the chatbot earlier this week. The company blamed a system update for the use of violent language, saying that the root cause was an update to a code path upstream of the bot.

Yaccarino announced her departure on X, saying that she is “immensely grateful” to Elon Musk for taking her on in 2023.

The latest version of Elon Musk's artificial intelligence chatbot Grok is echoing the views of its billionaire creator, so much so that it will sometimes search online for Musk's stance on an issue before offering up an opinion.
