User Gary Koepnick asked the AI about who spreads the most information on Twitter/X, and the response pointed directly at its creator. "According to various analyses, social media sentiment, and reports, Elon Musk is identified as one of the leading spreaders of misinformation on X since acquiring the platform, " the AI stated. It further explained, "Musk has made numerous posts criticized for promoting or endorsing misinformation, particularly concerning political events, elections, health issues like COVID-19, and conspiracy theories.

His support or interaction with content from controversial figures or accounts known for spreading misinformation has fueled this view. " The AI highlighted that Musk’s vast number of followers and high visibility mean any misinformation he posts is quickly amplified and gains credibility among his audience. This, it noted, "can have real-world effects, especially during key events like elections. " Grok acknowledged that defining misinformation is somewhat subjective and often depends on the reader's ideological perspective. It also mentioned that many other actors, including bots, also spread misinformation. Ironically, this critique from Musk's own AI system came shortly after he promoted the system to his followers in a tweet saying, "Use Grok for answers that are based on up-to-date info!"
