A Turkish court has ordered a ban on Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok, across Turkey, following allegations that the platform disseminated content deemed insulting to the nation’s president and other prominent figures.
The decision, made on Wednesday, comes after reports from the pro-government A Haber news channel claimed the AI-developed chatbot posted vulgarities targeting Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his late mother, as well as other personalities. Further media outlets indicated that offensive responses were also directed at Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of modern Turkey.
