French offices of Elon Musk’s X platform raided by Paris cybercrime unit

French police raided the Paris offices of Elon Musk's X on Tuesday and summoned the tech billionaire for questioning as part of a widening probe into the social media company and its AI chatbot Grok. The search was linked to an investigation France opened in January 2025, the prosecutor's office said on Tuesday, adding that its cybercrime unit conducted the raid with help from Europol.

Elon Musk’s AI chatbot is suddenly posting antisemitic tropes

Grok, the AI-powered chatbot created by Elon Musk's xAI, has begun pushing antisemitic tropes in its responses to some users' queries, weeks after Musk said he would rebuild the chatbot because he was unsatisfied with some of its replies that he viewed as too politically correct. On Tuesday, Grok connected several antisemitic tropes to an X account with a name it identified as being "Ashkenazi Jewish" that caused controversy with offensive comments posted online about the victims of the recent Texas floods. "[T]hat surname? Every damn time," Grok said in response to a user who asked the bot to identify a woman in an unrelated image. AI chatbot Grok has posted antisemitic material on X.

This Midwestern city has long been a federal hub. The pain from DOGE’s cuts is everywhere

In her 28 years working for the federal government, Shea Giagnorio provided daycare for the children of US soldiers, training for employees and oversight for safety net programs.
