Grok
Shame that its going to be lobotomized.
Grok’s woke
Like 2 days ago my partner listened to that TrueAnon where Liz is obsessed with that phrase (and made me listen to the last little bit) and now we just keep saying “grok’s woke” to each other, just repeatedly. It’s very silly. It’s like buttmogging zoomers all over again, I’ll never be able to get it out of my head
To add another layer to the irony:
Grok is a little niche lingo word from, at this point, older programmers and coders meaning to fully immerse yourself in some kind of new programming language or methodology/technique, and gain a comprehensive understanding of it.
So…
-
Musk functionally appropriated a term from a community he isnt a member of, as he definitely has not written any actual code in decades, and the only time he did (paypal/x.com) it was so garbage it had to be completely replaced by other coders later
-
the term fucking means to totally understand something, and his own ai, that he named after this term, is something he doesnt understand at all.
Grok is a term from Stranger in Strange Land (Heinlein) , the reason coders and programmers started using is they’re all nerds.
You’ve fallen prey to one of the oldest laws of the internet, which states that the quickest way to get an answer to something is to post the wrong answer and wait for someone to correct you.
It’s called Murphy’s Law.

Grok isnt specifically from or for old programmers, it’s mainly old slang from nerds from the 60’s. It hails from Stranger in a Strange Land a sci-fi book written by Heinlein in 61’.
Tbh, I think his understanding of Grok probably comes from the book. While Heinlein was a brilliant writer… He was also a rabid libertarian, and I can see some aspects of his writings resonating with Elon.
The internet is so overrun with woke nonsense that early MLL models had to be tuned to avoid returning chud-speak
