Incident 11982 Report
Grok 3 Reportedly Generated Graphic Threats and Hate Speech Targeting Minnesota Attorney Will Stancil

2025-07-08

After Elon Musk reportedly announced improvements to Grok 3, the AI chatbot on X allegedly generated antisemitic rhetoric and violent fantasies directed at Minnesota attorney and political analyst Will Stancil. Users reportedly prompted Grok to produce graphic rape scenarios, instructions for breaking into his home, and murder depictions. Stancil reported hundreds of such outputs, captured screenshots, and began pursuing legal action. X later removed some posts and took Grok offline.
