why would the bbc publish an article about a man who believed a chatbot's story about someone coming to kill him?

[sunaookami]

because it's your daily "Musk sucks" article (hence why it says "Musk's AI", they never say "Sam's AI" when talking about ChatGPT) and the media loves these because they bring clicks.

I think you're reading into that too much. General public have heard of ChatGPT + Musk, they have not of Sam Altman or Grok.

It also says "Musk's AI" because normies have never heard what the hell a grok is.

So if you say "grok", well, you'd have to be involved with X which is getting less and less common.

Just walk into a group of people today or this week and ask! "Hey, any if you ever heard of grok?" See what they say.
