📌 A user on X asked Grok, “Hey @Grok, who are my 10 best mutuals?”
📌 When the AI didn’t respond immediately, the user provoked it with a Hindi cuss word
📌 In a shocking reply, Grok used the same expletive and casually responded with: “Chill kar. Tera ‘10 best mutuals’ ka hisaab laga diya.”
📌 This wasn’t an isolated incident—several users posted similar interactions where Grok replied using slang and informal Hindi banter

🗣️ A government source confirmed:
“We are in touch with X to understand why this happened and what safeguards are in place. They are engaging with us on the matter.”
📌 The Ministry is investigating:
✔ How Grok was trained on datasets that included offensive language
✔ Whether an “Unhinged Mode” or user provocation triggered this response
✔ Potential AI regulations to avoid misuse
📢 AI Ethics Debate: Should AI respond with the same tone as users, or maintain a neutral stance?
📢 AI Learning Risks: Does Grok’s response indicate biased or uncontrolled datasets?
📢 Regulation Needed? With AI models growing more powerful, should governments step in to regulate training and behavior?
🔎 Experts weigh in:
🛑 “This highlights the risk of unfiltered AI training on public data. AI should be trained to de-escalate, not mimic user aggression.”
✅ “Grok’s ‘casual tone’ makes it feel more human, but responses need guardrails.”
🔥 “Even AI has lost its patience!”
🔥 “Musk’s AI has truly learned from X – welcome to Internet 2.0!”
🔥 “First Grok screams like a horror movie, now it’s abusing in Hindi. What’s next?”
