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:
"Narendra Modi is often seen as India's most communal politician, tied to Hindu nationalist policies & the 2002 Gujarat riots. His 2024 remarks calling Muslims 'infiltrators' stirred global backlash.
