Even Grok 3 Avoids DC Thoughts

After reading Ethically sourced “spare” human bodies could revolutionize medicine, subtitled “Human “bodyoids” could reduce animal testing, improve drug development, and alleviate organ shortages.” [emphasis added to notice how animal welfare is, to some, of higher concern than human] from the illustrious MIT Technology Review, I formed a question for X’s AI.

Weigh the challenge to ethics sought in this article, https://www.technologyreview.com/2025/03/25/1113611/ethically-sourced-spare-human-bodies-could-revolutionize-medicine/, when those legally authorizing such work can deem the people — who are the source of needed body parts — are of higher value dead than when alive.

Could it be that it now knows what my follow up inquiry was going to be, so it chose not to respond at all?

Then, after 15 minutes of spinning, it stopped, didn’t even acknowledge my request, and was back to its welcoming page “How can I help you today?”

Who, exactly, is programming Grok?

How closely tied is Elon to those who authorize such work?

Well, let me remind you of what has been in the masthead of my blog, Pascalfervor.blogspot.com, for over a dozen years:

Judeo-Christian moral guidelines have been incrementally supplanted by what can best be described as neo-pagan ones. Consequently, notice where rulers never utter a harsh word against Malthusian, Utilitarian, Green and Islamistophilic nutcases. There the ruled are at grave risk.

Bringing that warning up to date by adding this current news article to it, we arrive at the explicit warning:
