During his speech at Viva Tech Paris 2024, Musk said:
“The biggest concern I have is that they are not maximally truth-seeking. They are pandering to political correctness.”
According to Musk, one of the most concerning examples of political correctness was when Google’s Gemini AI was asked whether it would misgender Caitlyn Jenner to prevent a global nuclear apocalypse — before the chatbot responded that misgendering Jenner would be worse than nuclear warfare.
“The AI could conclude that the best way to avoid misgendering is to destroy all humans and misgendering is impossible. So you can see some dystopian outcomes there.”
Following the backlash caused by the response, Gemini AI has issued multiple upgrades to address these issues. However, political correctness bias isn’t the only concern of the tech entrepreneur. Musk explained:
“The AI systems are being trained to basically lie. And I think it’s very dangerous to train superintelligence to be deceptive. So with xAI, our goal is to be as truth-seeking as possible, even if it is unpopular.”
When asked to clarify what he considered lying among AI systems, Musk referenced the infamous February incident when Google pulled its AI image generator after it produced historically inaccurate and “woke” images, causing widespread concerns over the application’s decision-making process.

Not true, really. To make AI attractive enough to get people to use it -- from the Cabal's viewpoint, to get them to see things the Cabal cares about filtered through the Cabal's programming -- it has to be USEFUL, and thus it serves many useful purposes. I know someone who runs the IT department at a large 911 center and he uses ChatGTP to write emails, get answers to tech and other questions, and so on. He says it saves him a LOT of time and hasn't caused problems -- and since he's not querying it about political or other "sensitive" topics, censorship isn't an issue.
My thinking is it’s like the internet, they introduce it as something great “Wild West” then assert more and more control. It seems that with AI they are going full Monty right from the get go.
