Grok’s egregiously irrelevant responses all but ensured that this particular political project would blow up in the company's face. But let’s assume that over time, interventions like these will grow more subtle, relevant, and personalized. People already have plenty of good reasons to be skeptical of, or even hostile to, AI developers. Soon I expect we will begin hearing much more about one more: a pervading sense that, everywhere they go, the AI is working against them.
