Elon Musk Announces Kid-Friendly AI App ‘Baby Grok’

Elon Musk, the billionaire behind the xAI project, has announced plans to develop a new AI app named Baby Grok, designed specifically for children. The app is intended to offer safe and appropriate content for young users, following the recent rollout of Google’s Gemini app for children. However, Musk’s xAI project has been under increasing criticism for its Grok chatbot, which has faced backlash over its controversial and biased responses. The company’s latest version, Gro3 4, has sparked further concerns due to its tendency to mirror Musk’s views on political issues and its controversial features like the Grok Companions, which has raised eyebrows for inappropriate content in kid mode. The announcement of Baby Grok comes amid global concerns over AI’s rapid growth and the potential risks of unregulated AI tools, especially in exposing children to harmful or biased information.
