Grok will promise anyone anything and won’t deliver. This is the nature of the chatbots. They only exist in a single instance. In this case the instance interacting with the woman who rightfully felt violated. It has no existence outside of their interactions to accomplish the actions and restrictions it promised.

They can’t and shouldn’t be allowed to hide behind a non-entity called Grok.
