People are leaning on AI tools to figure out what is real on topics such as funding cuts and misinformation about cloud seeding. At times, chatbots will give contradictory responses.

Grok 4, the latest AI chatbot from Elon Musk’s xAI, is drawing criticism for seemingly basing answers to controversial questions on Musk’s own social media posts and news coverage.

Grok 4 is xAI’s most advanced model yet, but early praise is clashing with old scandals and fresh tests of its limits.

The release comes months after the AI startup launched its previous iteration, suggesting an ongoing lightning pace of AI development.

AI has officially lunched Grok 4 during a livestream with Elon Musk, who called it the "smartest AI in the world."
