Was Grok too far? Among the supposed censorship, the voluntarily sarcastic tone and the generation of erotic videos, the artificial intelligence designed by Elon Musk will have to do without one of its great bosses. In a publication about X, Igor Babaschkin, co -founder of Xai, announces his company’s departure. The businessman now wishes to resort to “a safe and beneficial AI for humanity.” A complete change, while Grok is accurately designed so as not to have an ethical barrier.
He launched a risk capital company, Babuschkin Ventures, whose main mission will focus on “AI security research” but also agents systems. Thanks to their network, it will also support new companies to “progress to humanity and unravel the mysteries of our universe.”
A month after the game of Linda Yaccarino
In the space of a month, this is the second important beginning in the musk galaxy. On July 9, 2025, Linda Yaccarino announced to leave her duties as Chief of X. He spent two years defending the billionaire who, during this period of time, multiplied controversial comments and the dissemination of false information in her own social network. Linda Yaccarino had also suffered the departure of her right arm, Joe Benarroch, after Elon Musk’s pressures that wanted to relive sales of advertising space, abandoned by advertisers due to the return of extremist speeches.
We can only assume, therefore, that Igor Babaschkin no longer felt comfortable with the direction taken by Grok. The last episode to date, the suspension of this generative artificial intelligence for thirty minutes after stating that Israel and the US government were complicit in a genocide in Gaza. Upon his return, Grok then “complained” of having been censored, before finally explaining that it was a “stupid error.” A new testimony of Elon Musk’s control in his AI, far from being in fact and neutral now. The billionaire did not talk about this game.
