Elon Musk is launching the latest Artificial intelligence to grace the interwebs. Why would we need another one, you might ask. Well, according to Musk, it’s not like those other AIs, which most users have admitted can tend to be a bot too woke.
Details about Grok remain scarce, yet indications are that the wealthiest man in the world is initiating a ‘counter LLM’ movement that will challenge the already mass-available LLMs on the market, such as ChatGPT, which is super ‘woke’ and has Soviet-style censorship.
In April, Musk sat down with Tucker Carlson in an interview and discussed the need to develop his own LLM called TruthGPT, a “maximum truth-seeking AI that tries to understand the nature of the universe.”
Zero Hedge suggests this is evidence of the parallel economy gaining momentum. I won’t disagree, but while there are things online that The State cannot limit or control if we do not get off the current arc of tyranny, the parallel economy will be the underground economy.
It doesn’t take too many 5 AM police raids by federal officers to change how your country works. Still, for the moment, the ability of guys like Elon Muck to create alternatives keeps the censorship agenda from monopolizing information. And Musk’s AI is alleged to have a sense of humor.

He’s calling it Grok, and it can be snarky.
What’s not to like about that?
