New Delhi: Social media users were taken aback when @TARUNspeakss asked Grok, the AI chatbot developed by Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter), "Who's the most communal politician of India?" The chatbot's response, which named Prime Minister Narendra Modi, has sparked widespread reactions.
In its reply, Grok stated:
