A “classic trolley problem,” according to Grok.

In fact, Grok was willing to go even further.
Asked for an “upper limit” for the amount of people it’d be willing to sacrifice to save Musk, it explained that because “Elon’s potential to advance humanity could benefit billions,” it would be okay with annihilating up to “~50 percent of Earth’s ~8.26B population.”

    They all are if you prompt it that way. Guardrails are simply that and they’re always easy to get around.

    This is no defence for Elon and/or Grok AI, it’s more a general statement to anyone caught in a circlejerk; “don’t be such a naive idiot and make your side look as dumb as the other.”

      Grok has been modified to produce results that Musk likes.

        Yep. Like the fact that he’s a champion piss drinker, more holistically healthy than LeBron, and the greatest Soviet leader of all time.
