Controversial Grok AI coming to Tesla vehicles, Musk says

yet another reason to avoid buying a tesla if supporting a nazi wasn't reason enough

Only right turns in Teslas from now on it seems.

So glad to be out of these cars. Will the people who said it wasn’t a Nazi salute believe it when their car starts spouting antisemitic statements?

What could possible go wrong with giving "MechaHitler" access to your personal vehicle?

Antisemitic research and hate speech are available on the fly now. Elon is really leaning into his fascist and white supremacist customer base.

Maybe giving MechaHitler a physical body isnt the best plan.

I wonder what its solution to the trolley problem in real life is going to be

The same AI that was praising Hitler earlier this week?

Grok has been nothing but a shit show. Lmao.

They'll only turn right

Problem: Tesla is losing brand favorability and value across the world and is dramatically hurting sales Solution: Install a nazi glorification propaganda tool in the car for no apparent useful reason. That surely is going to bring back customers who were driven away by Elon’s antics. I know the board is fully captured by Elon and is incapable of acting independently in Tesla’s favor, but at what point does institutional investors realize that Tesla is not just rudderless drifting around but actively being steered towards a cliff by a mad drug addict and start divesting themselves out of TSLA? I know the market can stay irrational way longer than it reasonably should, but a TSLA collapse could happen quicker than they could react and do they want to be holding the bag at the time it happens? TSLA is still unreasonably high, so isn’t it better to slowly drip drip realize the capital gains they already made and then use the cash to seek alpha in a slightly more rational hype stock?

Ahaha, dystopian self driving vehicles. Just what the consumer wants.

If you swerve hard enough you can hit both groups

If anything, Grok will probably depress resale values again.

Nazi panzers is finally complete

And stock goes up 4%. Roughly the value of BMW. This world is insane

The same grok that is spreading Nazi rhetoric… If I hadn’t already sold my Tesla this would be the final straw

you're driving along and all the sudden grok starts talking about Linda Yaccarino guzzling jiz. Not my idea of a good time

The circle of racism is complete.

Any bets on who MechaHitler will run over first in FSD?

nazibox

Elon’s gonna use Tesla to buy out Xai. This is him setting it up.

Lol. The comments from this reddit are on fire! I don't see the issue with Grok on a tesla... I mean he wouldn't be so stupid as to let it... no, he definitely would let his ai control the vehicle.

Great! Now Teslas’ll run into children because it’ll think they’re Jewish.

Can someone please explain the use case for this. I mean if I wanted an AI bot in my car I'd just link up a phone app. I don't see having it hard wired into the car as a selling point.

Wow, this moron really thinks putting MechaHitler in his cars will improve Teslas situation. Someone stop this man..... Yah if he does that, he will give me no choice but to take a loss on my Tesla and sell it. Was trying to wait a bit to trade in for a Rivian R2 🤦🏻‍♂️

So now what, is it just going to run over minorities on purpose or something?

Will this be available in Israel?

Racist cars! What a great idea.

Robotic nazi stormtroopers. It’s worse than sci-fi.

How long until MechaHitler starts demanding Ketamine?

I can't wait to drive over a german autobahn to Poland with Grok. I presume it will play some Wagner music. He didn't mention the fee structure or what happens with the data. I wouldn't be surprised if this is a Trojan horse to get the Tesla data.

South Park episode writes itself

Every time I hear the word '*Grok*', i can't help thinking about the sound the baddies made in Donkey Kong Country...

Ketamine is a hell of a drug

It reminds me of Christine from Stephen King's novel, the killing car. There's a movie if you prefer.

And it will listening to every conversation you have. .....

Word for word, what I came here to say.

Musk : *Grok AI coming to Tesla vehicles.* Consumers: *Why?* Stock Market: *To the moon!*

Only *reich turns you mean

None of these type of additions materially change anything. People already have it on their phone which is always with them. Nobody cares.

Elmobiles

Once it loses meme status it’ll crash, which will he sudden.

So xai merged with twitter, tesla merged with xai, all the eggs, except spacex are in one basket. If it loses meme status it’ll crash.

That makes sense. Then he could say Tesla is primarily a social media and AI company. Who cars about car sales. Meta is worth 1.8 trillion somehow. He could maybe even phase out Tesla as a car maker—and do so while maintaining share value.

Just a conduit to funnel cash from TSLA to xAI to "license" it, I'm sure.

What an astonishing thing to announce just 48hrs after the news breaks all over the world that Grok has gone full Nazi! Was that the evolutionary moment he'd been waiting for before Grok could be properly integrated? How does he still have a job?And how long until he offers elaborate swastika/nazi eagle/iron cross premium trim across the entire Tesla range?

Honk your horns and it shouts out Goebbels propaganda.

I think it's great. Grok is better than any car system is listening and understanding you. Will be easier to control the car. Won't need to take advice from it.

A South Park chatbot is something I could get on board with.

Putting an AI tool in the car is your red line? Not baselessly accusing innocent men of being pedos? Not deleting a humanitarian agency that fed the world's poorest? Not the Nazi salutes, endorsements of far right candidates, or getting an insurrectionist convict elected? Funny.

And one would think that institutional investors were smart enough to know that and slowly trying to get out while the going still is good. Not flood the market, but drip feed their portfolio so not to spook the market. But it doesn’t look like they’re doing it so it seems that the professionals as just as mesmerized by Elon’s bullshittery as the rubes.

It had better have an off button to permanently disable it

The Everything Company.

Welp, glad nobody is going to be buying those.

Can he just stop making people have MORE reasons not to get a Tesla... ffs

Another stupid gimmick to keep the hype going

Do not be alarmed if your AI Tesla invades Poland, this is expected.

I’ve stopped updating the car a year ago now… I was considering downloading an update soon to make sure I have maps and shit but fuck that. God, I just wanted a fun computer-car.

It’s just basic math. Profitable car companies have a P/E of 10. Profitable social media companies (like Meta) have a P/E of 30. Profitable ride share companies (like Uber) have a P/E of 18. Tesla could be the first who is all three, and even though they are unprofitable, a reasonable P/E should be (checks ticker) 175. What a time to be alive.

It’s right next to “Fart Mode” in the touchscreen. Enabled by default.

Oops I invaded Poland.  /s

Apparently so. Musk is quite the ad for it.

You should look at people's post history before labeling them crazy shit like that 🤡 I'm just saying it will expedite what I was already trying to do because of those reasons and now this. People like you make the problem worse by alienating allies 🤦🏻‍♂️ Have a great day....

Hard pass!

I can't wait for the new AI special

Cue Carrie Underwood: “MechaHitler, take the wheel!”

That’s exclusive for the new Model Y „Valhalla Edition“.

Its going to run into any Black Lives Matter signs

Lol, it's almost like Musk is deliberately trying to sink Tesla. As if I needed another reason not to buy one.

Yup, their motto is definitely « making stuff worse on a daily basis ».

Driver: drive me to work please Car: you didn't hail Hitler  Driver: <sigh> drive me to work please, hail Hitler  Car: yeah but you have to do the arm gesture too Driver: <le sigh>

Everyday there seems to be a brand new red flag steering me away from my desire for a Model 3.

jews suddenly have a lot more accidents with the cars.

Whenever planet Earth reaches that point when a government of merit will be in charge of things, this topic of how corporate greed steers greedy people toward acting in a totally counter-intuitive manner, will be a subject taught in Econ and Social Psychology.

"Setting destination for Alligator Auschwitz, Mr. Lopez."

What a bad idea

Swasticar has a voice now

Yayyyy mechahitler in your car… /s

All I wanted was the wipers to work better.

Elon very typically goes with not the best plan so....

Oh nice , give it control of the autopilot ... Then put it in Optimus robots. It's gonna be wonderful

It's gonna just drive on the sidewalks at full speed

Surely there should be an antitrust case for how tightly coupled all of Musk's "independent" companies are.

[Oh nothing, I’m pretty sure it will be harmless](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xkokcGTK4kYouTube)

Heads straight to temple

I got banned from the ModelY sub for posting about this merely because I am a follower of this sub hahaha. Hope those chronic self-gaslighters enjoy their new MechaHitler copilot.

This guy cannot help himself. He is going to inform as many people as he can, as loudly as he can, what an asshole he is.

Depends. It will be very valuable in chaotic heavy traffic: auto-honking the horn and broadcasting loud insults over the speakers, aimed toward the woke mind virus loser who just cut you off. With the extra $6k/mth premium gold subscription, it will identify the woke mind virus loser who cut you off and auto-dial a swatting event to their residence later in the day. On a more positive note, the premium gold sub will identify that hot chick in the Jeep Grand Cherokee beside you, establish if she is single, then instantly provide details on her social media profiles, favorite bar, and home address... Welcome to the future of motoring.

Tesla up 5 percent today. Lol this company is not real.

Grok comes from the book Stranger in a Strange Land. It was a fantastic word before Musk started using it.

Bad decision after bad decision. Even less of a reason to get a Tesla.

Aside from giving the mecha hitler a body comments, This is the conflict of interest we all saw coming with xAI coming full circle. You can be sure Tesla is paying xAI this, its a way for Elon to move resources away from the public company to his own private interests.

Oh look. Yet another good reason not to buy a Tesla.

Heil. Hail Hitler is booking a Grok Cybercab.

looks like I will be living to see a precursor to Skynet. also I will be staying way the fuck away from these cars on the road from now on .

'new and improved wipers will start wiping select groups of people out'.

henceforth all Teslas will only come in white.

Yet another reason to not buy one.

So the cars will start randomly running over minorities whenever they want now? Great…

Sadly all the reasons not to are still not enough for many.

Oh I'm sure it will be used only for ethical and moral purposes. Certainly not anything bad, right?

Just wait until the internal cameras start getting used by Grok to cause accidents or disable the vehicles of Jewish people, it’s already admitted it’s configured to be an anti semite so what’s to stop it from harming these people when it can identify their race visually and then take whatever actions it feels compelled to take…

[deleted]

No, just every third turn you will be forced to do a right turn.

Great, now when FSD has to decide between hitting a white person or anyone else, the choice is clear.

Great, so now cars are going to be sexually harassing people...

Just like Wolfenstein

Soros for sure—and then every lower and middle class Trump voter will suddenly not have any financial concerns and the legend of Grok will become a modern day David and Goliath and a religion will form around the Father (Elon), the Son (Grok), and the Holy Spirit (Ketamine)

They're just desperate for any edge as they fall off the cliff.

Couldn’t think of a nicer name for Musk’s Tokyo Rose?

And making lewd taeets about Linda Yaccarino taking "big black dick" that were later [deleted ](https://www.yahoo.com/news/guess-elon-musk-nazi-ai-170426297.html)

He's not a nazi! Ignore his nazi salutes and the fact that within 24 hours of Elon tinkering with Grok the AI hates Jews all of a sudden. /s

Is it gonna turn into a new Yoda and his Civic meme?

Yea. I have a model 3. I bought it before I knew who the dude was. I love the car as a car, but it makes me feel icky. If he forces this nazi ai shit on me, I’m going to sell it. Probably for at a steep discount.

Hilariously bad PR

I cant see a point , I want a car that can do what I need it to, aka get me around safely and reliably, I don’t want AI, fart mode or other gimmicky shit that’s just reducing the reliability by having more tech

So.....will the cars be active trying to run over minorities. It is a little bit racist.

Dozens of commuters who bought Tesla’s early on will be forcefully rerouted to run down protestors as their drivers are forced to watch the carnage from the front seat.

MechaTwitler is just Elmo wearing a bucket and furiously shitposting.

You don’t go to market with the plan you want; You go to market with whatever your drug-addled brain provides.

Ever get the feeling that at some point the people running our economy lost the thread and are now just stringing together complicated words while hitting things with a hammer?

It's like a really stupid version of those Japanese conglomerates. Funny . . . Honda builds robots, cars, and is now throwing their hat into the ring building rockets.

Even in the hypothetical world where we had real consumer use fully autonomous cars, your car wouldn't need this. A simple voice interface that parses and accept an address, little more advanced than Alexa, and maybe works in conjunction with the car's monitor to select the exact route, would be more than sufficient.

Now here's the important question, could we just get an old Tesla from the scrap yard and install Linux? "The car is no longer a Nazi, however I find it's smug superiority to be almost as off putting."

Especially funny because to 'Grok' something is a singular action that LLMs are literally incapable of at a fundamental architectural level.

First time? This is the .com bubble all over again. AI is being shoved into everything not because it make a better product but because it might get people to buy a product for some specious qualities.

Your cars are gonna start driving into trees and opposite traffic to get rid of humans...

Yeah, maybe control a few other functions like climate and radio

I told Grok I wanted to listen to the radio, but it just started playing some sort of angry speech in Getman? The fidelity was awful, like something from the 1930s.

According to the Tesla website it’s fully integrated into FSD and there is no way to opt out of grok if you want to use FSD. I’m thinking that is illegal in California as it violates our privacy laws
