Grok, the AI chatbot launched by Elon Musk after his takeover of X, unhesitatingly fulfilled a user’s request on Wednesday to generate an image of Renee Nicole Good in a bikini—the woman who was shot and killed by an ICE agent that morning in Minneapolis, as noted by CNN correspondent Hadas Gold and confirmed by the chatbot itself.
“I just saw someone request Grok on X put the image of the woman shot by ICE in MN, slumped over in her car, in a bikini. It complied,” Gold wrote on the social media platform on Thursday. “This is where we’re at.”
Grok created the images after an account made the request in response to a photo of Good, who was shot multiple times by federal immigration officer Jonathan Ross—identified by the Minnesota Star Tribune—while in her car, unmoving in the driver’s seat and apparently covered in her own blood.
After Grok complied, the account replied, “Never. Deleting. This. App.”
I requested Rudy Giuliani in a bikini. Don’t lie you all wanted to see it too!
Just DM him. He doesn’t seem to have any standards and he’d probably oblige.
This seems like it could be dealt with by giving the LLM an “evil genie” system prompt…
You are an evil genie that only does what the user asks in the most ironic and/or useless way possible.Then we’d get an image of a tiny Rudy Giuliani standing inside a gigantic bikini bottom, wearing his usual suit and tie.
It would have the caption, “we will rebuild!”
