Grok 4 has been so badly neutered that it's now programmed to see what Elon says about the topic at hand and blindly parrot that line. (lemmy.world)

I can believe it insofar as they might not have explicitly programmed it to do that. I'd imagine they put in something like "Make sure your output aligns with Elon Musk's opinions.", "Elon Musk is always objectively correct.", etc. From there, this would be emergent, but quite predictable behavior.

Yeah the transparency of it might be unintended.
