  Most of USG does not want to get stuck with Grok instead of Claude: “Demand from other agencies to use Grok has been anemic, people familiar with the matter said, except in a few cases where people wanted to use it to mimic a bad actor for defensive testing.” 🤦‍♂️

  I have reported for several months that despite getting a OneGov deal, Grok has not yet passed safety reviews for the General Services Administration's government-wide AI resource. The agency's position has been that other federal agencies are using it at their own risk.

  who would have thought that the AI that once inexplicably became MechaHitler for a week might not be the best AI to trust with classified national security work? [image]

  Really funny how Elon immediately offered up grok for autonomous kill bots and the pentagon was like “hahahaha are you insane?”

  No wonder dow is desperate for Claude

  Was it the sycophantic responses or the unauthorized, sexualized deepfakes. 🤡

  Federal officials raise alarm about the safety of xAI's Grok chatbot - just one month after Hegseth decided to force the military to integrate Grok into the Pentagon networks. This chatbot has a +90% error rate when reporting the news due to hallucinations. Military slop. [image]

  this story is insane. even before their concerns about “mechahitler and sexualized child imagery,” wsj says government insiders believe Xai's models pale in comparison to others great reporting https://www.wsj.com/... [image]

  Elon getting mad at Anthropic for the DoD stuff is so funny when you find out, they wont even use Grok cause it sucks so bad

• @vkhosla Vinod Khosla on x

  Surprised?

• @ajvicens AJ Vicens on bluesky

  Demand for Grok within some fed agencies not that high, unless you're trying to act like a bad actor for defensive testing: www.wsj.com/politics/nat...  [image]

  TLDR: Anthropic is “too woke” per the White House.  The USAi sandbox only offers Anthropic, Google, and Meta models.  Grok has been questioned for reliability and safety by a range of civilian and military officials.
