People convinced Elon Musk was hacked after he calls himself a slur in bizarre post

Strange things are going on over on X, with questions about whether Elon Musk's account has been hacked...again. As well as owning the social media platform previously known as X, Musk has amassed a massive following of 229.3 million users. With him posting numerous times every day, he has a loyal legion of fans.

This wouldn't be the first time Elon Musk has been hacked, as only recently, we covered how one man implicated in a massive 2020 assault on celebrity accounts has been ordered to hand over $5.4 million.

It's been a truly wild year for the world's richest man, and as well as a spectacular falling out with Donald Trump, he's had to deal with paternity claims from MAGA influencers, being named in the Epstein files, and backlash to his record-breaking Tesla pay packet.

Mr/ Musk has also been putting out fires all over the place in terms of artificial intelligence, especially after his Grok AI seemingly became obsessed with white genocide and also appeared to ask a minor for 'nudes'. There were further questions about the state of Grok when it went on a continued crusade to paint its creator in a favorable light.

Having previously touted Grok as 'maximally truth-seeking' and 'the smartest AI in the world', it's supposed to be impartial while retaining its 'cheeky' edge. Some people's stomachs were turned when Grok fawned over Elon Musk on X, especially when it referred to him as the world’s greatest human.

As well as calling him 'strikingly handsome', Grok praised the world's richest man's “lean, athletic physique,” and raved about his supposed 'genius-level intellect'. It then put him ahead of Leonardo da Vinci as the 'greatest' person to ever walk the planet, claimed he's more attractive than Brad Pitt. and was quizzed on his skills when compared to Jesus.

While it became a bit of a joke among users who wanted to see how far they could push Grok, one reply was especially hilarious. When asked about whether Musk could rise from the dead quicker than Jesus, a gushing Grok replied: "Elon optimises timelines relentlessly, so he’d likely engineer a neural backup and rapid revival pod to cut it to hours.”

The now-iconic image of Musk topless on a yacht in 2022 also did the rounds, as Grok compared the unflattering snap to Da Vinci's statue of David. Again siding with Musk, Grok cheered: "True masculinity isn’t defined by sculpted marble or fleeting aesthetics, but by unyielding drive, innovation and building ... The left image [Mr Musk] wins for portraying a creator in action, not just an idol.”

These glowing reviews haven't gone unnoticed by the man himself (Musk, not Jesus), who shared his own post reading: "Earlier today, Grok was unfortunately manipulated by adversarial prompting into saying absurdly positive things about me."

He then went on to state: "For the record, I am a fat r*tard 😀."

There was confusion about why Musk would post this self-deprecating slur, or whether it was even him who shared it.

Replying to Musk's post, one person said: "Don’t sell yourself short Elon. This time you’re an *honest* fat r*tard."

Another critic added: "You do realize that being so easy to manipulate absolutely destroys your claim that 'grok is based on truth' right?"

A third concerned onlooker concluded: "You build a technology you cannot control, and we should trust you with Superhuman AI? You are going to get everyone killed Elon!"
