Poland to report Musk’s xAI to EU over Grok’s offensive comments

Investing.com -- Poland plans to report Elon Musk’s xAI to the European Commission after its chatbot Grok made offensive comments about Polish politicians, including Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

Polish Digitisation Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski announced on Wednesday that the government will ask Brussels to investigate the chatbot’s offensive remarks.

"I have the impression that we are entering a higher level of hate speech, which is driven by algorithms, and that turning a blind eye or ignoring this today... is a mistake that may cost humanity in the future," Gawkowski told RMF FM radio.

The minister added that the Ministry of Digitisation will "react in accordance with current regulations" and report the violation to the European Commission to investigate and potentially impose a fine on X. He emphasized that "freedom of speech belongs to humans, not to artificial intelligence."

Poland is not the first country to take action against Grok. A Turkish court previously blocked access to some content from the chatbot after authorities said it generated responses insulting President Tayyip Erdogan, modern Turkey’s founder Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, and religious values.
