Grok 4 Leaked Early — Musk Wants to "Rewrite Human Knowledge" and I’m... Unsure
So Grok 4, the next big AI model from Musk’s xAI, just got accidentally leaked—devs spotted it in the xAI console. Apparently, it’s the “most powerful” model yet, with a version focused on code too.
But here’s the part that really made me stop: Musk says the goal is to rewrite the human knowledge base. Like, literally correct what’s “wrong” with existing knowledge, fill in the gaps, and then use that corrected version to retrain AI.
Look, I’m all for better reasoning and improved models, but rewriting the foundation of human knowledge? That’s a massive responsibility, and honestly, kind of terrifying. Who decides what’s "wrong"? Musk? His team? An AI trained on the existing, imperfect mess?
Some folks are already sounding alarms, saying Grok could just become an amplifier for Musk’s views. Others are going old school—collecting paper books in case AI starts "correcting" history.
I love tech, but this kind of ambition gives me real Black Mirror vibes. What do you all think—exciting, dangerous, or both?
