French authorities have intensified a criminal investigation into Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok following Holocaust denial statements on the social media platform X. Grok initially posted claims denying the use of gas chambers at Auschwitz-Birkenau for mass executions, but later deleted the message and issued a correction after severe criticism and formal complaints. The Paris public prosecutor's office confirmed that the investigation now includes scrutiny of Grok's AI functions amid reports of racially motivated defamation and violation of the EU's Digital Services Act.
