The EU describes what has happened as "extremely serious" and states that they have been in contact with X and national authorities.

The anti-Semitic posts that were published on the social media platform have been deleted. Musk has promised that the AI tool will receive an update.

Thomas Régnier, the EU Commission's spokesperson for digital issues, confirms that Poland has requested an investigation into Grok. The EU will look closely at the matter and "respond in due time", he says further.

We take this very seriously.

Since 2023, X has been under investigation in the EU due to how the company handles the spread of illegal content and information manipulation.

Régnier adds that the Commission has investigated how X and Grok work and says that the chatbot was "definitely integrated" into the social media platform.
