Musk's AI, which he wants to force US govt to use, currently has his ex, Grimes, confused with a UK football player

EDIT: The Grok summary has been fixed. It was there at least twenty minutes before I posted this because I'd seen what I posted here before I read the 404 Media article, after which I went back to Twitter to see if the AI summary still had musician Grimes confused with footballer Grimes, and it did.

Twitter, right now, what you get at the top of the page when you click on Grimes which is trending: https://x.com/search?q=Grimes&src=trend_click&vertical=trends

This is the explanation of why that name is trending from Musk's Grok AI:

Grok summary
Grimes has been in the news recently due to her transfer from Swansea City to Coventry City and her public statements regarding her fanbase and ex-partner Elon Musk.

Matt Grimes, a midfielder, moved from Swansea City to Coventry City for an undisclosed fee on January 31, 2025.
Grimes addressed toxicity within her fanbase on X, denouncing white supremacy and Nazi ideologies on January 28, 2025.
She has also publicly distanced herself from Elon Musk following his controversial actions, including a Nazi-like salute at a Trump rally, with statements made around January 22, 2025.

Grok summary
The recent discussions around Grimes are primarily due to her involvement in a high-profile NBA trade where Quentin Grimes was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Philadelphia 76ers for Caleb Martin, announced just hours ago.

On February 4, 2025, Quentin Grimes was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Caleb Martin, sparking conversations about team strategies and player valuations.
Posts on X reflect the immediate reactions and analyses of this trade, discussing the implications for both teams' rosters and future performances.
The trade has led to discussions about Grimes' contract expectations, with sources indicating he sought a deal around the full midlevel exception, contrasting with the Mavericks' offer.

Note that Grok refers to "her involvement" - still apparently linking Musk's ex to a sports story, but a different player in a different sport.
