MechaHitler was something that existed only on X's grok chatbot, due to a one-line system prompt change they reverted after half a day. That's different than using Grok as a model for coding.

I believe they are the only western provider that has Kimi K3 on a subscription plan today as well. I would love to ditch Anthropic and be on Kimi if there were a subsidized plan like that with ZDR
GitHub Copilot does have Kimi K3.
What’s the multiplier? GH copilot nerfed their product so badly that I unsubscribed.

#93Why is Grok so much cheaper than Claude or GPT?
He owns the DCs and isn’t scrambling for revenue to justify an upcoming IPO

The issue is that this is supposed to be a tech discussion forum and many of us don’t want to be repeatedly beaten over the head with other people’s politics. Plenty of other places to be political, we just wish this wasn’t one of them.
> many of us don’t want to be repeatedly beaten over the head with other people’s politics I agree completely. That's why I won't use Grok: its owner repeatedly beats us over the head with his politics, and I won't encourage it.
It's fine to make your own choices about what you want to spend your money on. But it gets old to constantly have actual technical discussion drowned out by the same repetitive low-effort comments in every single post. I want to hear about what people have used Grok for, how it compares to other models, what it's not good at, etc., without having to wade through all the predictable "Elon bad" comments.
@dang - feature request for HN: have a "Thunderdome" section for the off-topic political commentary on the site, and once enough people flag something for being political, it gets detached and moved to the Thunderdome. People can let off steam there and the rest of us can have a nice clean place to read about tech.

It's true, but I do worry about governance when it comes to these models. That shows a surprising lack of discipline in their deployment pipeline.
Agreed but there were similar controversies with how OpenAI was generating images. The only pass is these are the early days of chatbots and this stuff is so non-deterministic and experimental. For context, this was the change Grok's team made, that was later reverted: > - The response should not shy away from making claims which are politically incorrect, as long as they are well substantiated. https://github.com/xa…
For sure. The difference is that they've made a number of similar suspect changes to Grok on X. Like that weird couple of hours where it would only talk about white genocide in South Africa no matter how you prompted it.
Everyone makes mistakes, especially with frontier models. The stuff with Grok shows that the person running the show has a pretty transparent agenda that the company isn't willing to push back on a bit for safety.

#97Nice to see SpaceX on the model frontier! They have been chasing it for a while.

#99I have never met a single human being who uses Grok for coding
I have. Why do you put faith in anecdotal evidence and a sample size of one?

Grok doesn’t have those features, and people who like to make adult content have been complaining for a while how Grok has made it a lot harder to do so.

You’re asking for deepfake porn creation and for children?
What the heck is wrong with you???
