BRUSSELS — The European Commission has requested a meeting with X to discuss its artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok.

Last week, European countries and lawmakers called on the Commission to amp up scrutiny on the social media platform, after the AI chatbot spewed out antisemitic remarks. Those included glorifying Nazi leader Adolf Hitler as the best-placed person to deal with alleged “anti-white hate.”

Poland’s Minister of Digital Affairs, Krzysztof Gawkowski, said the government would consider banning the app, later asking the Commission to take action in a letter.

X said it removed the posts and that the problem was not related to the chatbot’s underlying large language model.

Still, the Commission has called in the company for a “technical meeting” on Grok, spokesperson Thomas Regnier said.

X is designated as a very large online platform under the EU’s Digital Services Act, meaning it has to follow strict transparency requirements.

The Commission has not responded to POLITICO’s inquiry as to whether the platform submitted a risk assessment for the integration of Grok into X. Meta submitted such a document for the integration of AI features on its platform, Regnier previously told POLITICO.

X is also under investigation for breaches of the DSA on several fronts, including the dissemination of illegal content.
