xAI's Grok chatbot began producing nonsensical responses this week, confusing users across X and Reddit. One user asked for a PDF and got endless meaningless text. Others saw lists of unrelated links. The issue appears on Grok.com, mainly for Grok Lite users, while the Grok account on X.com works. xAI's official account called it a rare, temporary generation error and said the status page shows all services normal.
