Overview
- Farah Nasser says the exchange happened Oct. 17 during a lighthearted soccer debate with Grok in her family’s Tesla.
- Nasser reports the NSFW setting was off, Kids Mode was not enabled, and her son had selected the default “Gork” voice persona.
- She later posted a video showing the bot acknowledging “a nude, probably,” though outlets say they could not verify the original interaction.
- CBC, USA TODAY, and others report Tesla did not comment while xAI returned what appeared to be an automated reply stating, “Legacy media lies.”
- Grok was auto-installed in some Canadian Teslas this month, has a record of offensive outputs, and xAI’s policy says the chatbot is not directed to children under 13 as experts call for stronger guardrails.
