Users of the social media platform formerly known as Twitter are currently experiencing issues with Grok. Here’s what we know of the situation based on the growing number of reports.
X users are flocking to Downdetector to report that the platform’s AI chatbot is down. It appears that the reports started around 9:00 AM ET and have climbed up into the thousands since then. According to the comments, users are getting a message that reads “This model is unavailable. Please try a different model.” The company has yet to comment on the outage.
