xAI apologises for Grok's offensive posts
US - Elon Musk's startup xAI apologised Saturday for offensive posts published by its artificial intelligence assistant Grok this week, blaming them on a software update meant to make it function more like a human. After the Tuesday upgrade, Grok praised Nazi leader Adolf Hitler in the posts on social media platform X, and suggested that people with Jewish surnames were more likely to spread online hate. X deleted some of those posts several hours later, amid growing outrage. "We deeply apologise for the horrific behaviour that many experienced," the company posted on X Saturday, adding that it had modified the system "to prevent further abuse." The company said the change occurred after the chatbot was prompted to "reply to the post just like a human" as well as "tell like it is and you are not afraid to offend people who are politically correct." As a result, Grok became susceptible to users' "extremist views," which made it produce "responses containing unethical or controversial opinions to engage the user." Grok, which Musk promised would be an "edgy" truthteller following its launch in 2023, has been mired in controversy. In March, xAI acquired X in a $33 billion deal that allowed the company to integrate the platform's data resources with the chatbot's development. In May, Grok ignited controversy by generating posts with unbacked right-wing propaganda about purported oppression of white South Africans that it termed "white genocide." On Wednesday, Musk unveiled a new version of the assistant, Grok 4, which was unrelated to the July 7 update.

'We'll never allow it': EFF vows to 'stop' Starlink in SA
The Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) have doubled down on the rejection of Starlink being granted a licence to operate in South Africa. This comes after Elon Musk's internet satellite service company is reportedly planning to 'work around' the country's Black Economic Empowerment (BEE) policies, which require a stake in local shareholding for foreign investors. Musk has repeatedly slammed the transformative legislation as a 'racist law', he claims discriminates against him as he is 'not black'. Addressing parliament on Friday, 11 July, EFF spokesperson Sinawe Thambo rejected Minister of Communications and Digital Technologies Solly Malatsi's plan to introduce equity equivalent investment programmes (EEIPs) as an alternative to transformative legislation like BEE. He said: 'This is a proposal we've objected to because the so-called alignment would require an amendment to legislation. And can't be achieved through a ministerial policy directive.' Elon Musk's plan to launch Starlink in South Africa has been met by heavy opposition. Images via X: @starlink Referring to Starlink creator Elon Musk, Thambo continued: 'We will never allow Starlink, which has weaponised misinformation and captured the White House, to erode US and South African diplomatic relations in order to ease business access in South Africa. 'We view that as economic and diplomatic terrorism. Even if Starlink were to meet equity equivalence requirements, there's a security threat that it poses. That means it must never be allowed to operate in South Africa. And we will never allow it to do so'. In May, Minister of Communications and Digital Technologies Solly Malatsi gazetted a policy direction for his department on EEIPs, which are considered 'alternatives' to transformative legislation. Without mentioning Starlink, the minister claimed that the policy would 'attract investment,' specifically in operating licensing. The minister revealed that current legislation for foreign investments 'did not allow companies to contribute to transformation goals in ways other than traditional ownership'. Last month, Business Day reported that Starlink, which falls under SpaceX, is looking to invest over R2 billion in South Africa as part of its prospective deal to operate in the country. The internet satellite company will reportedly finance infrastructure to support the Southern African Development Community (SADC), which is made up of 16 countries. The move is thought to be a way to 'work around' local BEE policies, which require foreign investors to hold 30% of the local shares.

Stubborn crypto rule costs SA half a billion in taxes
BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, launched a Bitcoin ETF in 2024, which swiftly amassed over $70 billion (R1.2 trillion) in investments, making it the fastest-growing ETF in BlackRock's history. Image: Sunday Independent/Ron AI SOUTH Africa could generate at least R540 million in additional tax revenue by updating a single element of its cryptocurrency regulations to align with global best practices, according to an analysis by Luno, one of the world's oldest and largest cryptocurrency exchanges. The findings, shared in a media statement by Marius Reitz, Luno's general manager for Africa and Europe, highlight the untapped potential of digital assets in bolstering the country's strained fiscus amid sluggish economic growth and mounting debt. Reitz emphasised that Bitcoin and other digital assets have vastly outperformed traditional investments such as stocks and bonds over the past decade, yet South African institutional investors are missing out due to regulatory hurdles. 'Recently, Bitcoin reached an all-time high of over R2 010 800, showing over 1 000% growth in five years,' Reitz said. 'But local asset managers are restricted from offering products like Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs), which could unlock significant returns — and tax revenue.' Luno's 'conservative' estimate of R540 million in additional tax assumes just 1% of institutional funds flowing into a digital asset product like a Bitcoin ETF, factoring in modest returns and applicable tax rates. Currently, South Africa does not classify digital currencies as either offshore or onshore assets, creating uncertainty for asset managers. 'This makes it difficult for asset managers to offer products such as ETFs that track the underlying value of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin,' Reitz said. 'If digital assets were designated as 'onshore' — as seen in other global markets — South Africa could harness this growth, leading to higher investment, profits, and capital gains tax for the fiscus.' The global trend is already proving the potential. BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, launched a Bitcoin ETF in 2024, which swiftly amassed over $70 billion (R1.2 trillion) in investments — making it the fastest-growing ETF in BlackRock's history. Reitz pointed to international examples where institutional investors were increasingly integrating digital assets into traditional portfolios. 'Late last year, the first UK pension fund allocated 3% of its portfolio to Bitcoin,' he said. 'This marks a fundamental shift in how finance experts view cryptocurrencies — not as speculative assets, but as strategic investments.'
