So we have figures now.

Grok created and shared 1.8m sexualised images of women between December 31 and January 8, after Elon Musk promoted the feature on X.

Overall, the Grok chatbot generated and posted 4.4m images — 41% were sexualised images of women

See now, this is one of the things nearby that we can do something about.

CnaM says they choose not to use the powers they have against Grok.

You can let them know you would like them to reconsider.

Tomorrow: The first of two reports from women speaking out for the first time about having their images manipulated explicitly without their consent.

They've suffered years of trauma, panic attacks and unsolicited messages from men.

This is why the Grok issue matters.

As nothing has changed since I wrote The Abuse Factory Gist re X, the only thing an extra Gist has is a round up of the moral & intellectual collapse of policy and commentary

Too painful for me to go back on, to little benefit.

Niamh Smyth and Richard Chambers aside, it’s been a shocking failure

A beautiful day in Dublin, Northside & Southside! First a visit to Bull Island as Phil was looking for a Snow Bunting, which he found. Such a gorgeous spot, it's easy to forget how close to the city you are here. 1/2.

I feel I should write another Gist this weekend but it would be a gross imposition on subscribers to send them three in a week, perhaps.
When countries get hooked on US tech, their governments are constrained in reining in tech’s harms while most of the economic benefits accrue to the United States.

It’s time to break out of that trap — but that means challenging the Silicon Valley model, not creating our own digital colonizers.
