Generation of antisemitic content and hate speech by Grok AI on X (formerly Twitter)

Generation of antisemitic content and hate speech by Grok AI on X (formerly Twitter)

9.7.2025

Priority question for written answer P-002793/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Sandro Gozi (Renew)

Recent news has confirmed that Grok, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) chatbot developed by xAI and integrated into the social media platform X, published antisemitic content and praised Adolf Hitler. Despite the posts having been removed, the case raises serious concerns about compliance with the Digital Services Act (DSA) as well as the governance of generative AI in the Union's digital space.

The EU sets clear legal standards and obligations under both the DSA and the Code of Practice on Disinformation when it comes to the spread of illegal content and disinformation online. Furthermore, the AI Act sets out transparency requirements for AI-generated content.

  • 1.Is the Commission aware of the above-mentioned case and, if so, what measures will it take to address the situation and prevent the possibility of such conduct in the future?
  • 2.Does the Commission consider that the proper implementation and enforcement of the DSA and the AI Act will be sufficient to prevent such practices, or is there a regulatory vacuum with regard to the AI-generated content that needs to be further addressed?
