Social media platform X (formerly Twitter) has modified its Grok chatbot after calls from election officials in five US states to ensure the information it gives out is accurate.
The move comes after Grok falsely claimed the ballot deadline had passed in nine states, meaning the candidate options were set in stone for the November 2024 US Presidential election. This is particularly alarming considering this followed the announcement which confirmed President Joe Biden was halting his presidential bid, with Kamala Harris receving the Democratic nomination.
