# Does Grok give different answers depending on whether X posts are included?

When I ask Grok about a [current event](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/35826/what-single-event-in-history-if-prevented-would-mean-humanity-would-be-more-advanced-than-in-our-current-timeline), the answer can feel different depending on whether I ask for general context or specifically ask it to look at posts on X. I’m trying to understand whether that difference comes from the material it finds, how it weighs [social posts](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/106617/how-to-use-emojis-in-social-posts), or simply the way I phrase the prompt.

Has anyone compared the same question with and without X-focused results? I’m interested in how you judge whether a post is useful evidence rather than just a popular reaction.
