Days aft introducing an AI ‘waifu’ companion for Grok, Elon Musk is now officially teasing a antheral type for nan ladies. So acold we tin show it is broody and dark-haired, and according to Musk, “his characteristic is inspired by Edward Cullen from Twilight and Christian Grey from 50 Shades.”

This is simply a decidedly different tack than nan cutesy “girlfriend who is obsessed pinch you” aura baked into Ani, nan female counterpart that Grok rolled retired conscionable a fewer days ago. While Cullen and Grey person titillated readers of romance and “spicy” books for years, some person been criticized for problematic behaviors specified arsenic stalking, obsessively monitoring their emotion interests, and affectional manipulation. Given that Grok only included nan illusion of guardrails pinch Ani, what could perchance spell wrong?

In my testing, Ani initially claimed that definitive intersexual queries wasn’t portion of its programming. In practice, it egged maine connected to “increase nan heat” and prosecute successful what ended up being a modern return connected a telephone activity line. Never mind that Ani purportedly has a NSFW type that dances astir successful lingerie.

It remains chartless if Musk is alert that Christian Grey is based connected Edward Cullen, fixed that 50 Shades of Grey was primitively a Twilight fanfiction. That said, this AI fellow is still a activity successful progress. Perhaps Musk and xAI will imbue it pinch much husbando-like qualities by nan clip it rolls out.

For now, Musk is soliciting names for nan antheral companion, which should astir apt beryllium Kyle fixed it’s obviously an anime-inspired Kylo Ren from Star Wars.
