Grimes' Grok Toy Beats Elon Musk's xAI Chatbot in Trademark Application

Dec 15, 2023 - techtimes.com
Grimes' new AI venture, the Grok toy, has won over Elon Musk's xAI chatbot in a race for intellectual property rights. The company behind Grimes' creation, Curio, filed their application for the Grok trademark on September 12, well before xAI's filing on October 23. The Grok toy, designed to interact using Grimes' voice, is intended to be a playful, AI-infused companion for her children with Musk.

However, a legal battle is ongoing in the personal lives of Grimes and Musk, as they are locked in a custody dispute over their three children. Meanwhile, Musk's xAI platform has recently come under scrutiny due to unexpected glitches, with security tester Jax Winterbourne revealing a screenshot of Grok refusing a query citing "OpenAI's use case policy," despite being distinct from OpenAI's ChatGPT.
