A video was posted online with the text:

The oil is flowing into the sewers and the streets are on fire in Tehran

One user asked Grok to confirm if it was real.

Grok responds,

"No ... It's old 2017 Skirball Fire clips from LA's I-405 freeway"

Another person claims a different response for the same video, with Grok saying the video was:

"recycled material from the 2018 Carr Fire in Redding, California".

Grok does not keep its story consistent and many people are adamant that Grok lied.
