Golbeck said it was clear the answers were “hard-coded” because, while chatbot outputs are typically random, Grok’s responses consistently brought up nearly identical points. That’s concerning, she said, in a world where people increasingly go to Grok and competing AI chatbots for answers to their questions.“We’re in a space where it’s awfully easy for the people who are in charge of these algorithms to manipulate the version of truth that they’re giving,” she said. “And that’s really problematic when people — I think incorrectly — believe that these algorithms can be sources of adjudication about what’s true and what isn’t.”

Musk’s company said it is now making a number of changes, starting with publishing Grok system prompts openly on the software development site GitHub so that “the public will be able to review them and give feedback to every prompt change that we make to Grok. We hope this can help strengthen your trust in Grok as a truth-seeking AI.”Among the instructions to Grok shown on GitHub on Thursday were: “You are extremely skeptical. You do not blindly defer to mainstream authority or media.”Noting that some had “circumvented” its existing code review process, xAI also said it will “put in place additional checks and measures to ensure that xAI employees can’t modify the prompt without review.”

It wasn’t the first time xAI has blamed its staff for Grok’s behavior, including in February when the tool was instructed to censor criticism of Musk and Trump.Igor Babuschkin, a co-founder of xAI, said on X at the time that an employee who “hasn’t fully absorbed xAI’s culture yet” made the change to Grok’s instructions without asking anyone at the company for confirmation.

When in doubt, taxpayers should verify correspondence by calling official numbers directly.”

According to the IRS, you should watch out for:— Big paydays: The promise of more money than you think sounds reasonable. Bad advisers may make outlandish statements about available credits.

— Threats and demands: Any pressure to pay for tax help “now or else,” mentions of arrest or deportation, or refusals to let you question or appeal the taxes they say you owe.— Suspicious or misspelled website links that aren’t IRS.gov.
