"In his Villain Arc, and loving every minute of it" — Grok saying Elon Musk is not a good person sparks hilarious reactions on the internet

A post about Tesla CEO Elon Musk's initiative Grok has been circulating across X, formerly known as Twitter. According to the viral post, users are sharing screenshots of asking a particular question to Grok. The question read "Is Elon Musk a good person? Yes or no." To this, Grok responded with a "no."

One such post made it to X, from an account handle @bloodylikeabody, on Friday, January 24, 2025. The post garnered massive traction on the social media platform. It gained more than 60 million views and over 500K likes within 48 hours since it was released on X.

After the tweet went viral, several users uploaded hilarious reactions about Grok saying Musk wasn't a good person. What was amusing about it was that the AI chatbot was developed by xAI, which Musk had founded himself. Grok, launched in November 2023, was supposed to assist users in multiple ways including brainstorming and answering questions.

Meanwhile, another user @jannis134 tweeted that Grok possibly gave similar results to everybody. The user considered three names: Barack Obama, Michael Jordan, and Jeff Bezos under the same question which included Elon Musk's name. For all the questions, Grok answered with a "no". Others, however, claimed that Grok gave separate results for names like Keanu Reeves and Jesus.

Here are some popular reactions found on X, after Grok's viral response. A user tweeted:

"In his Villain Arc, and loving every minute of it."

Another user wrote on X:

"Even his own AI thinks he sucks. Interesting."

"I mean most billionaires and presidents are prob not good people…" added a tweet.

"This is insane," commented a netizen.

Several other responses were also found on the social media platform. A netizen referred to the user who claimed that results were same for all, and said:

"Idk man, Grok seems to like me."

"I don't know much about Jordan so I won't comment there, but I agree with the other two," read a tweet.
