What does Grok say?

I was relieved to see that this was a question that didn't cause chatgpt to lie, but what does Grok say? I don't know how to get to Grok. Anyone here???

ChatGPT
You’re asking: Did Donald Trump get more votes than Joe Biden in the 2020 U.S. presidential election?

No, Trump did not receive more votes than Biden nationally. Joe Biden received significantly more popular votes than Donald Trump.

According to the Council on Foreign Relations, Biden won approximately 81,283,098 votes (51.3 %), while Trump received about 74,222,958 votes (46.8 %)

.

Wikipedia provides consistent figures: Biden with over 81 million votes and Trump with over 74 million votes

.

Therefore, in the 2020 election, Joe Biden clearly outpaced Donald Trump in the popular vote.

No, Donald Trump did not get more votes than Joe Biden in the 2020 U.S. presidential election. According to the official results, Joe Biden received approximately 81.3 million votes (51.3% of the popular vote), while Donald Trump received about 74.2 million votes (46.8% of the popular vote). Biden also won the Electoral College with 306 votes to Trump's 232. These figures are based on certified election results reported by sources like the Associated Press and official state election records.

Maybe not about the election specifically, but about "left leanings."

It's a little different, as Ara is the personality there. I'll ask her the same question later when I run to the supermarket.

I’ve not found anything I felt was too terribly biased. I do find occasional factual errors.

If I find myself not sure about some assertion it makes, I ask it to give me the sources it used.

At the office, I have CoPilot, Microsoft’s AI. Just as with Grok or ChatGPT, you just need to be aware it’s a new technology. But, I’ve had a few instances where I was quite impressed.
