Elon Musk takes a dig at Gemini AI chatbot, calls Google ‘insane, racist’

Tesla and xAI CEO Elon Musk has hit out at Google in the ongoing controversy over the text-to-image generation feature of its Gemini AI chatbot. Notably, Google’s Gemini chatbot has been accused of being “too woke” for generating some historically inaccurate images depicting World War II soldiers and America’s founding fathers.

Raising the issue on X (formerly Twitter), Musk called Google ‘insane’ and ‘anti-civilization’, claiming that the Mountain View, California-based company had overplayed its hand with the AI’s image-generation capabilities of Gemini.

Musk wrote: “I’m glad that Google overplayed their hand with their AI image generation, as it made their insane racist, anti-civilizational programming clear to all.”
