Elon Musk has just unveiled “Companions,” a new feature for his AI chatbot, Grok, that allows users to interact with AI personas. These include Ani, a gothic anime girl who communicates with emojis, flirtatious messages, and facts, as well as Rudy, a friendly red panda.

Elon Musk's tech group has launched a girlfriend chatbot which is available to children as young as 12, even though it is programmed to be able to engage in sexual conversation.

Grok's has two new animated companions for you to chat with, including an anime girlfriend named Ani and a red panda with two very different sides to him.
