Comment by andai

From what I heard it was designed to prefer truth over political correctness. I don't use Grok or Twitter though so I cannot comment on whether that aim was achieved (or even seriously attempted).

I will however note that when I asked ChatGPT for an LLM prompt for truthfulness, it added "never use warm or encouraging language."

It would appear that empathy and truth are in conflict — or at least the machine thinks so!
