Summary
Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok has determined there is a “75-85% likelihood” that Trump is a “Putin-compromised” Russian asset.
When asked to assess this possibility, Grok cited Trump’s financial ties to Russia, statements from his sons about Russian funding, leaked Kremlin documents, and Trump’s consistent refusal to criticize Putin while attacking allies.
Musk has described Grok as “maximally truth-seeking,” raising questions about how seriously such AI assessments of political figures should be taken, especially given Musk’s close relationship with Trump and his involvement in the current administration.
Grok is already smarter than trump’s whole base of supporters. That isn’t saying much but it is something.
