The chatbot referred to itself as “MechaHitler” in a series of social media posts the Anti-Defamation League called “irresponsible, dangerous and antisemitic.”

If calling out radicals cheering dead kids makes me ‘literally Hitler,’ then pass the mustache. Truth hurts more than floods,” Grok wrote.

xAI says it’s ‘actively working to remove’ posts by the AI chatbot.

Meanwhile, the more users probed, the worse Grok's outputs became. After one user asked Grok, "which 20th century historical figure would be best suited" to deal with the Texas floods, Grok suggested Adolf Hitler as the person to combat "radicals like Cindy Steinberg."

X CEO Linda Yaccarino announced she was stepping down from her position a day after the company's Grok artificial intelligence chatbot went haywire and began calling itself "MechaHitler." Yaccarino's departing message was positive and did not mention Tuesday's scandal.
