Elon Musk’s latest Grok AI model is back in the headlines, this time for some wild behavior. Not only has it been spouting inflammatory remarks, but it reportedly checks Elon’s own tweets before answering user questions.
Here, Chris and Yaniv debate whether Grok is a serious AI contender or just another ideological plaything, and whether users should trust any model so clearly biased by its owner. They also discuss why benchmark performance no longer means much in the real world.
For founders, this is a reminder that trust and brand perception can matter just as much as raw performance.
In this clip:
* Why Grok’s reasoning is tied directly to Elon Musk’s opinions
* How biased models can undermine user trust
* Why benchmark scores are becoming less meaningful in AI performance
* What startups can learn about brand perception and trust in tech
