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.

Honest assessment from Frank on that match. Said it wasn’t anywhere near good enough.

OK, so this does cast that match in a better light. Brentford at home are a real tough nut to crack.
Only City have beaten them, and that was by a single goal and 0.85 xG - less than we had today.
They've claimed some big scalps there this season.
Their home record: 7 Wins, 3 Draws, 1 Loss.

Go on then. Sack Frank.
Who replaces him?
For how long?
With what?
And don’t give us the ‘that’s for the owners to decide.’ If you want them to get rid of someone you must have some idea for their alternative.

FT 0-0. I really hope that is the worst football match that takes place in 2026, in any league, at any level. If there's anything worse than that, something's gone wrong.

This year I endured a pulmonary embolism, hospitalization for pneumonia, and a dislocated shoulder…and I still consider myself lucky.
But good riddance, 2025.
