Tech billionaire Elon Musk has expressed surprise after his artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok, claimed that Nigeria recorded about four million more births than the entire European Union in 2025.
The chatbot's assertion quickly gained attention on social media, prompting discussions about global population trends, birth rates and the reliability of AI-generated responses.
Responding to the claim, Musk reacted with apparent surprise, further fuelling public interest in the exchange.
The incident has renewed conversations about the need to independently verify information generated by artificial intelligence systems, particularly when they make statistical or factual claims.
AI chatbots, including Grok, can produce inaccurate or misleading information if their responses are based on incorrect, outdated or misinterpreted data. Experts therefore advise users to cross-check significant claims against credible official sources before relying on them.
