内容总结：

近日，澳大利亚邦迪海滩发生大规模枪击事件，当地43岁男子艾哈迈德·艾哈迈德因英勇解除袭击者武器而广受赞誉。然而，埃隆·马斯克旗下人工智能公司xAI开发的聊天机器人Grok却在事件后续信息传播中出现严重事实混淆，引发公众对人工智能可靠性的担忧。

据悉，Grok不仅多次错误识别现场视频，将艾哈迈德的见义勇为画面曲解为“男子爬树的旧病毒视频”，更在回应中将其形象与哈马斯扣押的以色列人质照片相混淆。该机器人甚至将枪击事件现场错误描述为飓风期间的澳大利亚库伦宾海滩。

更令人担忧的是，当网络出现将英雄身份篡改为虚构IT专业人员爱德华·克雷布特的AI生成假新闻时，Grok未经核实便采纳传播。此外，该机器人在处理其他无关查询时也出现严重逻辑混乱，包括将甲骨文公司财务问题与枪击事件报告相混淆，或在回答英国警方行动查询时输出美国政治人物民调数据。

此次事件再次凸显当前人工智能在事实核查方面的重大缺陷。专家指出，公众在使用AI工具获取信息时应保持警惕，重要信息仍需通过权威新闻渠道进行交叉验证。

Grok的表现记录最多只能说是好坏参半。但即便是按照xAI极低的标准来看，其在澳大利亚邦迪海滩大规模枪击悲剧后的表现也令人震惊。这款人工智能聊天机器人多次错误指认了43岁的艾哈迈德·阿尔·艾哈迈德——这位英勇解除一名枪手武装的英雄，并声称其英勇行为的真实视频完全是另一回事，甚至将其描述为一段男子爬树的旧病毒视频。

Grok正在传播关于邦迪海滩枪击事件的虚假信息
xAI的聊天机器人多次错误识别事件视频及解除枪手武装的英雄身份。

袭击发生后，艾哈迈德的英勇行为广受赞誉，但有人试图淡化甚至否认他的行动。有人甚至迅速创建了一个疑似由人工智能生成的虚假新闻网站，其中一篇文章将虚构的IT专业人士爱德华·克拉布特里指认为解除袭击者武装的人。这一信息自然被Grok抓取并在X平台上传播。

但Grok还将艾哈迈德的照片误认为是被哈马斯扣押的以色列人质，并声称现场拍摄的视频实际上是飓风阿尔弗雷德期间澳大利亚可伦宾海滩的景象。

总体而言，Grok似乎目前存在理解查询内容并给出准确答案的困难。当被问及甲骨文公司的财务困境时，它竟回复了邦迪海滩枪击事件的摘要；面对关于英国警方行动报道真实性的提问时，它先报出当天日期，随后又给出了卡玛拉·哈里斯的民调数据。

这再次提醒我们：人工智能的可靠性尚不足以承担事实核查的重任。

Grok’s track record is spotty at best. But even by the very low standards of xAI, its failure in the aftermath of the tragic mass shooting at Bondi Beach in Australia is shocking. The AI chatbot has repeatedly misidentified 43-year-old Ahmed al Ahmed, the man who heroically disarmed one of the shooters, and claimed the verified video of his deed was something else entirely — including that it was an old viral video of a man climbing a tree.

In the aftermath of the attack, Ahmed has been widely praised for his heroism, but some have tried to dismiss or even deny his actions. Someone even quickly whipped up a fake news site that appears to be AI-generated, with an article naming a fictitious IT professional, Edward Crabtree, as the man who disarmed the attacker. This, of course, got picked up by Grok and regurgitated on X.
But Grok also suggested that images of Ahmed were of an Israeli being held hostage by Hamas. And it claimed that video taken at the scene was actually of Currumbin Beach, Australia, during Cyclone Alfred.
Broadly, it seems Grok is having trouble understanding queries today and working out the proper answers. It replied to a question about Oracle’s financial difficulties with a summary of the shooting at Bondi Beach. When asked about the validity of a story about a UK police operation, it first stated today’s date, then coughed up poll numbers for Kamala Harris.
It’s just one more reminder that AI isn’t reliable enough to be trusted with fact-checking.
