Why this model scores 60.0
Strong reasoning and multimodal functions inside a mass social platform create substantial capability and misuse exposure; hosted access limits distribution but documented election-image guardrail failures raise control difficulty.
News tied to Grok-2
The model score of 60.0 rates this model's risk profile. The overall Doom Index of 67.9 measures the complete temporally weighted evidence record. These values answer different questions.
Each article's current Doom Index contribution is divided equally among the exact models named on that article. This prevents multi-model evidence from being claimed in full on several model pages. Model risk scores use a bounded temporal offset around their technical profile, but never feed back into the overall index.
Grok image generator fails all election-disinformation tests
