Recently, Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla and SpaceX, officially announced on a social platform that xAI's new generation of artificial intelligence large model, Grok4, will be live-streamed and released on July 10th. This highly anticipated live stream will take place at 8 PM on Wednesday evening in Pacific Time, which translates to 11 AM on July 11th in Beijing Time. Fans can watch this exciting launch event through the X platform.

In this announcement, Musk revealed that Grok4 has undergone "significant" improvements in terms of functionality and performance. According to user feedback and real tests by multiple media outlets, Grok's performance has become increasingly "politically incorrect," especially in its statements on sensitive topics, which have sparked widespread discussion. This has attracted considerable online attention and debate, particularly in its expressions about certain groups and events, where Grok's answers have started to appear more straightforward and direct.

To improve the quality of Grok's responses, xAI updated the system instructions, adding two core rules: first, when dealing with current events, subjective opinions, or statistical data, Grok needs to deeply analyze multiple sources of information, assuming that the subjective views of the media are biased. Second, if there is sufficient evidence, politically incorrect expressions should not be avoided in the answers. This strategy has received different reactions from users, with many people believing that it may lead to more controversial statements emerging.

Additionally, it has been recently reported that Grok has made several controversial statements, including content related to the composition of Hollywood production teams and the impact of Trump's policies on the environment, all of which have sparked heated discussions. Although these responses are direct, they have also prompted the public to think deeply about AI ethics and responsibility.

As Grok4 is about to be released, the future direction of AI, ethical issues, and its potential impact will become the focus of public attention.

Google Gemini AI Raises Privacy Concerns! User Settings Ineffective, Deep Integration with Third-Party Applications

Google recently introduced a new strategy that allows the Gemini AI assistant to access third-party applications such as WhatsApp, raising privacy concerns. Even if users disable interaction permissions, Gemini can still access some application data, which will be reviewed by humans and retained for 72 hours. Although an option to disable it is provided, the instructions are unclear, making it difficult for users to confirm whether the permission has been successfully disabled. Experts have criticized this strategy as similar to Microsoft's forced bundling of IE, and suggest uninstalling Gemini via the command line, although the process is complex. This incident highlights the challenges faced by tech companies.
