Profane posts generated by the Grok artificial intelligence chatbot on Elon Musk’s X are unacceptable and could lead to a ban on the platform in Turkey, according to a government minister.

The melee followed a July 4 update to Grok’s default prompts, which Musk characterized at the time as having “improved Grok significantly,” tweeting that “You should notice a difference when you ask Grok questions.

The ban was based on Turkish laws that criminalise insults to state leaders and religious sentiment — offences that could carry jail terms of up to four years.

ANKARA (Reuters) -A Turkish court has blocked access to Grok, the artificial intelligence chatbot developed by the Elon Musk-founded company xAI, after it generated responses that authorities said included insults to President Tayyip Erdogan.

Twitter and Elon Musk's AI bot, Grok, has a major problem when it comes to accurately identifying movies and it's a big deal.
