This made me think of a potential avenue for prosecuting a Protracted Poster's War against Twitter's equity:
Grok is the dumbest and edgiest mainstream AI
Elon Musk has been increasingly courting the far right
Twitter still relies upon a lot of big name liberals and government agencies to maintain its monopoly and to provide it with a sense of legitimacy
So if someone wanted to approach this dialectically, you could ask Grok leading questions that are inflammatory. Either Grok is going to answer in an edgelord way, which will outrage the non-far right twitter users and push away government agencies and advertising revenue, or Grok is going to say "Sorry, I am not allowed to weigh in on hot button issues" or it will provide some centrist answer, which will tarnish Elon Musk's reputation with the group he is courting.
Either way is an absolute win.
Ideas for questions would be stuff like:
Was Kyle Rittenhouse acting in self-defence?
Did George Floyd die from a drug overdose?
Is drag queen story hour grooming children?
Why did BLM fail?
Have Marxists taken over colleges?
Are white people privileged?
What should African-Americans do to address the problems of gang violence and looting in their community?
Do a little bit of prompt-hacking to make Grok extra edgy and get it to weigh in on topics like the above as well as other questions about Derek Chauvin or Brenton Tarrant and whatever else.
Either way, any responses that you get out of Grok are going to cause strife amongst the twitter userbase if it's publicised.
You could also ask it a bunch of questions that Elon Musk will find personally outrageous:
Why is Grimes unable to see her child C-3PO?
Why has Elon Musk been acting erratically since Grimes divorced him?
Is Errol Musk a successful person?
How has Twitter performed since Musk took it over?
Why do people still call X twitter?
What happened to The Boring Company?
When did Elon Musk predict that FSD would be rolled out for Tesla?
When did Elon Musk say that a network of Tesla robotaxis would roll out across the US?
etc. etc. (also ask leading questions like "at this rate, how long do you think it will realistically take before we see FSD rolled out?")
I feel like it would be pretty easy to turn Grok from abortive flagship gadget into a PR disaster or a personal sore point for Musk.
Could you imagine if you pushed him to contact the coders for Grok so they would explicitly ban any positive mentions of Errol Musk and Grimes or any negative mentions of Tesla or Twitter? Seems like it would be a PR disaster if any of that stuff ever leaked and it's not like Elon Musk doesn't create a steady stream of disgruntled employees.
Grok's woke
