The following report is by Futurism:
“Try submitting x-ray, PET, MRI or other medical images to Grok for analysis,” Musk wrote in a tweet on Tuesday. “This is still early stage, but it is already quite accurate and will become extremely good.”
“Let us know where Grok gets it right or needs work,” he added, presuming that his audience will be willing to freely test his chatbot for him with their possibly compromising medical information — and maybe even to trust its analysis.
Sadly, he was right. Many users have already replied sharing what the Magic Grok Ball had to say about their medical documents, ranging from brain and bone scans to blood charts.
Being Musk fans, they were unsurprisingly enthusiastic about the chatbot’s results. A few celebrated the fact that they would no longer need to see a specialist.
But doctors were more mixed. One noted that Grok failed to identify a “textbook case” of tuberculosis that spread to the spine. Another found that it wrongly diagnosed breast scans and missed clear signs of cancer. In a hilarious case, it mistook a benign breast cyst for testicles.
Beyond the very high potential for misdiagnosis, submitting medical documents to an AI chatbot like Grok is a bad idea if you value your own privacy.
Because Musk certainly doesn’t: he billed Grok as having “real-time access” to data via X, which many interpreted as an admission that he trained the chatbot on users’ tweets. That remains unverified, but this became an official policy in July, when X gave users the ability to “opt-out” of having their data used to train Grok, when by default you were opted in.

AUTHOR COMMENTARY
This is a very foolish idea. Don’t do it.
Musk has said on a number of occasions that he wanted to turn Twitter (now X) into the Chinese surveillance state app WeChat, through which everything is held and monitored: banking, business, social media, medical records, personal IDs, etc.

Musk, in my view, is deceiving his little cult that worships him into voluntarily overturning their private information which is helping to form this new all-in-one app. And who is to say they are not probably training Grok with people’s medical records already without people’s consent, just as X is already training its AI on posts made on the platform.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Give you my medical records or whatever personal information to your Grok AI? When pigs fly!
Sorry folks – but Elon is on team satan. He advertised that October 2023.

More like dark MAGGOT.
That man is possessed.by devils. Everyone needs to go even more private now a days for safety & protection reasons. Worldly riches makes people evil. For the love of money is the root of all evil ……..
