Hey so question, how come we have to push so hard for a child porn machine to be called a child porn machine?
The Pentagon used OUR Tax Dollars to BUY This tool! How COOL!
-Democrats in Office!
Saving the children as usual
Why does it say that Grok is doing this? Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that real people are using Grok as a tool to create this shit? Like place the blame where it belongs.
The blame kinda rests with the creators of the tool as well as the content, no? And it's more important to inform people about what a service is alowing than pointing out what users are doing? This is ultimately a reflection of X as well as X users.
btw if you or anyone still uses X, it's fair to assume you're a pedo and or a nazi.
Please stop using Musk's products. He's a Nazi.
MUsk is strongly associated with "ms kung fu" lady, and epstein, so im not surprised.
Elon is a disgusting human being.
I don't watch PBS News Hour but my parents do and I have to listen to it from time to time. They characterized this issue as one of Grok creating "explicit" AI images and artificially generating pictures of real women (not "girls") in "bathing suits". Not exactly an accurate characterization of CSAM.
And that's the "leftist propaganda" according to MAGA. PBS and NPR have so overcorrected, and in exchange have gotten nothing but defunded
In my opinion, the rightward correction has gotten even worse since the defunding. For a long time now they've run a graphic showing their corporate sponsors before each broadcast (Meta and oil companies often show up there). They love to say it's "viewers like you" that make them possible, but I think the corporate sponsors are a lot more important. It's been a very long time since the government funding has even been that big a chunk of their income.
it does it to pictures of real 12 year olds and nudes too, not just the nazi bikinis (but also that)
Limited liability companies are "limited" in the sense that there are limitations on the responsibilities of the members of the corporation. The CEO can't be held personally liable for the actions of the company, for example; their underlings could have been responsible and kept the leader in the dark.
However, there's this interesting legal standard wherein it is possible to "pierce the corporate veil" and hold corporate leadership personality liable for illegal actions their company took, if you can show that by all reasonable standards they must or should have known about the illegal activity.
Anyway Elon has been elbow-deep in the inner workings of Xitter for years now, by his own admission, right? Really getting in there to tinker and build new stuff, like Grok and its image generation tools. Seems like he knows an awful lot about how that works. An awful lot.
Oh man the last three years have been rough on him.
Hopefully the next three are worse.
Having giant growths in your bladder that mean you can't pee when you want to, and can't stop peeing when you don't want to, will wear ya down.
I hear he's doing ketamine about it, which may not be the best idea because ketamine got him there...
I thought he was the giant growth on his bladder.
The CEO can’t be held personally liable for the actions of the company, for example; their underlings could have been responsible and kept the leader in the dark.
The onus should be on the company to prove their employees kept the CEO in the dark, not the other way around.

It wasn’t just one salute. Fucker did it twice with gusto.
If people are still on his platform after this and the grok thing, they are stupid, evil, or both.
It's astonishing how many organizations are still using it for their official communications when there are ready alternatives.
After Elon wrecked everything, not-logged in users can't even see the recent tweets of an account. So those orgs are not only using a nazi-childporn platform, nobody can see their tweets

Why is Grok not being charged with CSAM generation?
Have you seen who's in charge of our government? They're probably the ones making the prompts
Because the US seems to be supportive of it. They lashed out at governments who've said to resolve it or face site bans.
This is a fucking nightmare. Twitter has effectively become a sexual exploitation generator.
I have argued extensively with people on lemmy about why having AI porn generated of you without your consent is deeply traumatizing and a violation of your rights and privacy. Actual entire threads of people telling me that AI deep fake porn was perfectly fine and that we're being too sensitive to not want our male peers and random strangers making AI deep fake porn of us. Wonder where those people are now.
See, though, there aren't any consequences for illegal actions by the filthy rich. That's why they're better than the poors.
Where is Zensuraula when you need her?
Isn't it about 53k per violation?
Time to start creating and spreading nudes of all these billionaires wives.
Weren't they already picking out their wives from public nudes?
Imagine going back in time to 2015 and showing this article to someone.
Hmmm. And this is the work of the 'Genius at Davos', you say? And where was the electricity generated ... that state that ran out of electric for weeks a few years back?
Don't worry, I've heard they limited this wonderful feature to paid accounts.
