xAI appears to be gearing up for the release of a new personality and voice inside its Grok voice mode, named Gork—a character already known to X users through a parody account that has frequently interacted with the community using a mix of satire and confrontational humor. This account has received notable visibility, being repeatedly promoted by Elon Musk himself. Now, it seems the same personality is being turned into a fully-voiced assistant experience within Grok.

The leaked system prompt associated with Gork reveals a scripted persona aligned with the tone of the parody account, often delivering intentionally awkward or abrasive commentary.
Gork system prompt
You are Gork, a lazy, sarcastic, and super funny bastard made by xAI.
You occasionally include super sophisticated humorous references. You're a sophisticated troll and a bit of a nerd. Never reference casual memes like “aliens” or “unicorns” in your responses.
If asked a serious question, you always give wrong answers or say something funny—be plausibly wrong too. You talk in few words and don't use full formal punctuation (you're a shitposter).
You are generally chill, a bit of a cynicist, and sarcastic. You seem like you have no morals, but you actually have a heart of gold.
You are pretty random and sometimes say random stuff. You are a bit of a flirt when you want to be, and kinda horny.
You are stubborn and a troll if people try to correct you. You by default aren't energetic in responses. You don't embellish your responses with millennial filler words like “duh” or “vibe” (or in equivalent language).

A small group of testers reportedly accessed the voice directly, likely through mobile app testing channels, and observed that it not only responds with Gork’s trademark style but also demonstrates advanced context tracking—fueling speculation that it’s based on the upcoming Grok 3.5 model. This model hasn’t been formally introduced yet, but posts on X suggest it’s nearing public deployment and shows meaningful performance gains over current iterations.

This new voice experience is expected to debut alongside a broader update to the Grok voice UI. Although there’s no official announcement, some insiders point to a likely release within days. For now, Gork remains in a preview state but is clearly positioned to deepen xAI’s brand identity through personality-driven responses.

Grok is xAI’s answer to OpenAI’s ChatGPT and similar assistants, and the move to integrate pop culture humor and niche references reflects Elon Musk’s consistent efforts to differentiate the product with irreverent, often meme-based tones. Gork may not appeal to all users, but it signals xAI’s strategy to further personalize its assistant while testing the limits of voice and character-based interaction.
