xAI Cuts 500 Grok Trainers as Musk Bets on Automation

Elon Musk’s xAI has abruptly laid off around 500 data annotators responsible for training its chatbot, Grok. These workers were central to shaping the model’s tone, accuracy, and behavior. Their sudden removal signals a major shift toward automation and synthetic data, raising questions about Grok’s future quality and alignment. In this episode, we break down what the layoffs reveal about xAI’s strategy, how they impact Grok’s development, and why removing human feedback now could come at a cost.
