Summary
Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok has determined there is a “75-85% likelihood” that Trump is a “Putin-compromised” Russian asset.
When asked to assess this possibility, Grok cited Trump’s financial ties to Russia, statements from his sons about Russian funding, leaked Kremlin documents, and Trump’s consistent refusal to criticize Putin while attacking allies.
Musk has described Grok as “maximally truth-seeking,” raising questions about how seriously such AI assessments of political figures should be taken, especially given Musk’s close relationship with Trump and his involvement in the current administration.
Grok is already smarter than trump’s whole base of supporters. That isn’t saying much but it is something.
Grok is getting reworked very soon.
Grok figured it out? Grok? That is a low point. Yeah, that one hurts.
We’re all definitely in the Bad Place right now.
you guys need an AI for that? Its pretty clear to everyone what Trump is.
Well you can’t fault it for accuracy. Spot on.
He is a Russian asset. It all started back in 87’ look it up. Continued through the 90s with regular visits to Russia and Oprah even set it up for him to run back in the 90s with interviews to boost his public perception. This has been a slow set up for a quick tear down for decades.
Trump, “Doctor” Phil, “Doctor” Oz…
Is Oprah a Bond villain secretly orchestrating all of the evil in the world?
The Behind the Bastards series on her is fascinating.
I don’t think intentionally, but I’ve been surprised before. I’m thinking more of a puppet.
GARBAGE CHATBOTS SAYING THINGS ISN’T NEWS
GARBAGE CHATBOTS SAYING THINGS ISN’T NEWS
Setting aside all considerations of Trump and his Russian entanglements for a moment, it’s interesting how machine learning mirrors our own preconceptions back at us. It can be nice and validating, but not necessarily insightful when applied to public opinion. All it means is that Trump being subordinate to Russian interest is the common expressed perception. That doesn’t make it wrong (at all, in this case), but we didn’t need an LMM to tell us that.
It’s far more useful when applied to seeking out trends or patterns in scientific datasets where those are considerably less apparent. We really shouldn’t use this technology to build echo chambers for ourselves.
Discriminating when it will be helpful will be the challenge for most people. Better ask an AI bot when it will be useful!

Maybe when he went for his magical ear surgery they took him out and replaced him with a Russian double
Russian. Asset.
Because “AI” is pretty much just an autocomplete trained on the internet, and where some models were trained on the internet before a certian date, Musk’s bot gets live updates, and everyone is calling Trump a Russian asset right now so that’s what the autocomple bot repeats.
Well, it did cite very specific reasons for its assessment:
When asked to assess this possibility, Grok cited Trump’s financial ties to Russia, statements from his sons about Russian funding, leaked Kremlin documents, and Trump’s consistent refusal to criticize Putin while attacking allies.
These are well beyond “what people are saying”.
"People and whatever writes news articles, and pedants who respect autocomplete bots
I wish you would have more information literacy before you spout it off, these AI can site their sources and don’t just go off of what people are saying about the person look further down for confirmation or you know do some research on your own.
I wish people read comments before spouting off their AI gospel.
