Overview
- Elon Musk announced on X that xAI will use Grok3.5 to rewrite the entire corpus of human knowledge by adding missing information and removing errors.
- He argued current AI models contain “far too much garbage” and plans to retrain Grok on the updated dataset to improve accuracy.
- Musk invited X users to submit “divisive facts” for the retraining process, a move intended to address controversial or overlooked data.
- Critics such as AI scholar Gary Marcus likened the proposal to George Orwell’s 1984, warning of the dangers of rewriting history to fit personal views.
- Grok has faced scrutiny over inaccurate outputs like ‘white genocide’ conspiracy references and is under consideration by U.S. agencies including the Department of Homeland Security for data analysis tasks.
