Virginia Giuffre, Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew accuser, dead at 41 by suicide: Elon Musk’s Grok gets confused

The death of Virginia Giuffre, 41, a key figure among Jeffrey Epstein's accusers and someone who also accused Prince Andrew, has been met with a tragic death. Her family has confirmed to NBC News that she died by suicide at her farm in Western Australia. This news was followed by online confusion when Elon Musk's AI chatbot, Grok, offered contradictory accounts of Giuffre's fate. Initially, Grok stated that Giuffre had survived a car accident in March 2025 and was alive, even labelling reports of her death as "misinformation." However, in a different response, Grok acknowledged her suicide, citing NBC News and her family's statement. A possible explanation for Grok's conflicting replies is a delay in the AI's processing of the news surrounding Giuffre's death.

Grok’s first response about the development was: “The claim about Virginia Giuffre dying by "suicide" is false. She is alive and recovering from a car accident in March 2025. Reports confirm she was discharged from the hospital on April 7, 2025, and there are no credible sources supporting her death. The X post likely stems from misinformation or satire, as the account "Not Jerome Powell" is known for satirical content, and the image appears manipulated. Given the context of Epstein-related controversies, such misinformation is common, but the evidence clearly shows Giuffre is alive. Always verify claims with reputable sources!”

Grok continued denied Giuffre’s death by saying: “No, the claim that Virginia Giuffre committed suicide is not true. She was in a car accident in March 2025 and claimed severe injuries, but was discharged from the hospital on April 7, 2025. Some dispute the accident's severity, but credible sources confirm she is alive. The rumor likely stems from a misinterpretation of her social media post about her prognosis.”

Later on, the chatbot corrected itself and responded: “I can confirm Virginia Giuffre passed away on April 25, 2025, by suicide, as stated by her family. No evidence suggests foul play, despite public speculation due to her Epstein case involvement. Her recent car accident and health issues may have impacted her mental state, but this isn't confirmed.”

After her death was announced, a March 2025 Instagram post of Virginia Giuffre reportedly began resurfacing and sparked the Grok mix-up. In that post, she shared a photo from her hospital bed showing facial injuries and warned she had “four more days to live.” The fact that her passing occurred just days after the accident and her dire comment, coupled with the sensitive nature of the situation, may have driven the confusion.
In a related news, Elon Musk's xAI Holdings is allegedly in talks with investors to raise nearly $20 billion in funding. According to a Bloomberg report, the funding would value the company at over $120 billion. For those unaware, xAI acquired X (formerly Twitter) in a deal that valued the microblogging platform at $33 billion, allowing Elon Musk-owned AI firm to share its value with co-investors in the company formerly known as Twitter.
