Grok's tweaking has gone back and forth, so I don't know what its
status will be when you get around to using it.  Also, its lies were
focused on certain politically sensitive topics - screenshots of this
were a bit of a meme in certain circles I'm in.  Look up "grok south
africa injection" for an incident where it was injecting
less-than-truthful comments about events in South Africa into
unrelated conversations last May.

But, to my knowledge, the general public can use it.  The screenshots
of lies all came from Twitter conversations, so I don't know if that
version is different from the one at https://grok.com/ , but I think
that you can get an unverified Twitter account for free.
