People shouldn’t be able to avoid seeing this by default. Bluesky is a joke.
FYI, on the Minneapolis shooting video: Bluesky hasn't taken it down. It's been labeled as "graphic media" so that people can avoid it if they choose.
You can change your personal settings on whether you see media labeled as graphic (or whether it appears with a warning) here: bsky.app/moderation

Are people unable to watch this now bc it's been tagged as graphic media? Because this is newsworthy and important and that seems like a problem to me.

Generating these images is now a huge proportion of what's being asked publicly of Grok on X.
It's generating nonconsensual images of people in revealing clothes, manipulated into sexual poses and otherwise degraded.
Stop participating in that platform.

For the last few days on X, people (mainly women, and sometimes children) have had nonconsensual images of them in swimsuits (or much worse) requested by users and created by Grok.
Musk's only apparent response thus far has been to crack jokes about it.

I’ve said this so much. If they hadn’t shown so many needles on the news in 2021, I doubt we’d have so much vaccine hesitancy, which really seems to be due to a fear of needles.
