Elon Musk has been forced to rebuke Grok, his own AI chatbot integrated into X, after it falsely suggested the tech billionaire wrote a post saying he “took” the wife of Stephen Miller.
On Sunday, Grok replied to a question on X asking whether the post purporting to be from Musk—which appeared to mock the White House deputy chief of staff by stating “just like I took your wife”—was genuine. The chatbot answered by suggesting the post “likely existed and was deleted.”
In response, an exasperated Musk posted: “No, it’s fake ffs [face palm emoji]. I never posted this.”

Stephen Miller’s wife, Katie Miller, previously worked as an aide in Musk’s so-called Department of Government Efficiency. When the tech billionaire left the White House under far from harmonious circumstances, Katie Miller followed him out the door and is now working for him full-time as he returns to his companies.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Katie Miller was with Musk “almost all the time” while they were both in the White House. She was also reportedly on Musk’s payroll while her official role was that of a special government employee, leading to questions among Trump administration officials about her loyalties.
Katie Miller raised eyebrows further after she replied to a post that mocked her husband, Stephen Miller—one of President Donald Trump’s most loyal supporters—with three cry-laughing emojis.
The post showed a mocked-up image of Stephen Miller in an orange Home Depot uniform, tied to a report that ICE officials were targeting the stores in Los Angeles as part of their large-scale immigration crackdowns over the weekend.
“She has a choice between Elon and Trump, but it can’t be both,” one former Trump administration official told CNN.
Stephen Miller is also close with Musk, with the three of them reportedly spending time together even outside of work.
However, Stephen Miller quickly turned on Musk amid his very public and explosive fallout with Trump, which also happened just days after news broke that his wife had left her government job to work with Musk.
“The only ‘new’ spending in the bill is to defend the homeland and deport the illegals—paid for by raising visa fees. All the other provisions? Massive spending cuts. There is no ‘pork’ in the bill. Just campaign promises,” Miller posted on X, in a thinly veiled jab denouncing Musk’s earlier condemnation of Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act.
Musk later unfollowed Miller on X, but appears to have changed his mind and is following him again as of early Monday morning.
Grok has had a number of teething problems since it was introduced into Musk’s X.
This includes saying it was “skeptical” that six million Jews were were murdered during the Holocaust, as well as ranting about claims of “white genocide” in South Africa under completely unrelated chats.
