Ahead of Elon Musk's visit to India, his xAI's chatbot Grok published a news article that read, “PM Modi Ejected from Indian Government,” which was shared by a user on X. This headline sparked controversy and was criticised for its sensationalism, raising questions about the credibility of alternative news sources like Grok.
“Seriously @elonmusk? PM Modi Ejected from Indian Government. This is the "news" that Grok has generated and "headlined." 100% fake, 100% fantasy, wrote the user on X.
“Does not help X’s play for being a credible alternative news and information source,” he added.
Musk is expected to visit India on Apr 22, 2024. The meeting between Musk and Modi is expected to focus on Tesla's investment plans and India's strategies for promoting electric vehicles.
Musk is set to announce an investment in India of $2-$3 billion, mainly for building a new factory. Moreover, Musk is expected to meet with Indian space companies when he visits the South Asian country next week.
Startups including Skyroot Aerospace, Agnikul Cosmos, Bellatrix Aerospace and Dhruva Space say they have received requests from the government to save the date for a meeting with Musk in New Delhi on April 22.
