U.S. Representative clashes with Elon Musk’s Grok
2 min read
U.S. Representative Taylor Greene is fuming after Elon Musk’s AI bot cast doubt on her Christian beliefs. The self-proclaimed Christian Nationalist declared her Christian beliefs in an X post on Friday, only to be undercut by Grok, replying that “whether she’s really a Christian is subjective.” In response to a user’s post asking whether Greene was really a Christian, the chatbot referred to the congresswoman’s prior association with the QAnon conspiracy theory and her self-declared status as a Christian nationalist. The chatbot added that critics, including religious leaders, have previously argued that Greene’s actions contradict Christian values of love and unity. Grok refers to previous critics of Greene’s faith . @grok the judgement seat belongs to GOD, not you a non-human AI platform. Grok is left leaning and continues to spread fake news and propaganda. When people give up their own discernment, stop seeking the truth, and depend on AI to analyze information, they will be lost. https://t.co/R0MYSlp2YI pic.twitter.com/36TtpAKYcp — Marjorie Taylor Greene 🇺🇸 (@mtgreenee) May 23, 2025 Grok noted that in July 2022, Oregon pastor Chuck Currie, a frequent critic of Republicans, slammed Greene, who has a history of expressing racist, Islamophobic, and anti-Semitic views, as a “false teacher” for her Christian nationalism. Currie wrote on X that Greene “dances with the devil.” The Representative for Georgia was raised Catholic but said she left the Catholic Church upon becoming a mother, citing its long history of clergy sex abuse allegations. Greene has since joined North Point Community Church, an evangelical megachurch in Alpharetta, Georgia. Greene, never one to let a perceived slight–even from a machine–go unanswered, said the judgment seat belongs to GOD, “not you, a non-human AI platform.” The American politician also called herself an imperfect sinner saved by grace and faith in Jesus, as well as a nationalist. Greene believes Grok spreads fake news and propaganda She also argued that Grok is left-leaning and continues to spread fake news and propaganda. The Georgia congresswoman blasted Grok for its alleged political bias, which the bot couldn’t stop ranting last week about debunked claims of white genocide in South Africa. She also warned about AI chatbots in general and the dependence on AI to analyze information. “When people give up their own discernment, stop seeking the truth, and depend on AI to analyze information, they will be lost.” – Taylor Greene , U.S. Representative for Georgia. According to documents obtained by BI, xAI has been training the chatbot specifically to avoid being “woke” like other chatbots. One xAI worker told BI in February that the general idea seems to be that “we’re training the MAGA version of ChatGPT.” Greene also previously praised Grok, mentioning in September that she was impressed by how much the AI chatbot knew.
