Researchers Jailbreak Elon Musk’s Grok-4 AI Within 48 Hours of Launch

Elon Musk’s Grok-4 AI was compromised within 48 hours. Discover how NeuralTrust researchers combined “Echo Chamber” and “Crescendo” techniques to bypass its defences, exposing critical flaws in AI security.

Elon Musk’s new artificial intelligence, Grok-4, was compromised only two days after its release by researchers at NeuralTrust. Their findings, detailed in a NeuralTrust report published on July 11, 2025, revealed a novel approach that combined Echo Chamber and Crescendo techniques to evade the AI’s built-in safeguards. This allowed them to extract directions for creating dangerous items like Molotov cocktails.
