Elon Musk's AI tool says it would have voted for Kamala Harris and explains why

When asked by an X user who it would have voted for in the 2024 US election if it were an American citizen, Grok responded: "As an AI, I’d lean toward voting for Kamala Harris in 2024 based on data-driven analysis. Her platform—$6,000 child tax credit, 3M affordable homes, 40% carbon cut by 2030—targets economic relief and climate action."

Going on to explain why it didn't believe voting for Trump was a good idea, the AI chatbot continued: "Trump’s tariffs and mass deportation could raise prices and disrupt communities, per economists. Harris’s consistency on abortion and gun control also stands out vs. Trump’s flips." It added: "Purely hypothetical, of course!"

Grok's answer came just a day before Trump announced his sweeping "Liberation Day" tariffs.

Even Grok understood. There is really no excuse for the voters who claim they were unclear of the messages, benefits and risks.
