"Well, he's a dictator whose people don't actually want him in charge" is an interesting precedent for this guy to set

the very first question every journalist should be asking after grok generates CSAM is "how did it know how to do that?"

and the nature of the tech is such that there can only be one answer: it was trained on CSAM.

why is that not a COLOSSAL story in the age of broad daylight Epstein coverups?
there are endless headlines about "grok apologizes" or "grok says it will be fixed" after it generated CSAM using pictures of minors and zero headlines about "grok being shut down" or "musk and xAI in big legal trouble" and I think something fundamental has broken here

I hate this phrasing and how it buys into what is essentially a falsehood about the autonomy of chatbots that is RIGHT NOW deforming our entire law and society. Grok doesn't say anything. That's like saying 'Microsoft Word apologized for losing everyone's files'

Grok says safeguard lapses led to images of 'minors in minimal clothing' on X

Remember:

When Tylenol was poisoned *by an outsider* and killed people, the company recalled all their products & redesigned them.

When Intel’s Pentium had a bug so obscure it affected 1 in _9 billion_ long division calculations, they recalled their chips.

ChatGPT was made deadly *by its team*.
i don’t see how any of the benefits of chatgpt and other consumer-facing LLMs can possibly outweigh their incredible ability to induce suicides
Adam Raine’s life hurtled toward tragedy soon after he began talking with ChatGPT about homework. Analysis of his ChatGPT account shows how the chatbot became a confidant as he planned to end his life.

I finally watched Wake Up Dead Man and man I really loved it. I also had to immediately find @clairewillett.bsky.social's thread about it from a few days ago so I could read all of her takes and observations

i really think there is legit political space for running on "we are going to dismantle ICE"
How it started vs. How it’s going NOW 👀

Fwiw I think the “apologize for being white” thing is very clearly about making sure white people don’t feel an obligation to alleviate past injustices or make society fairer. Ultimately to do that you have to raise taxes and the billionaires holding Vance’s leash don’t want that.

Once again a reminder: We can have trans rights, bodily autonomy, gender nonconformity, and freedom of expression, or we can have none of these things.

There’s no third option.

And, to be clear, what they are proposing is unconstitutional and illegal and should be blocked by any just court. (I know, I know, but, the fact remains.)
Honestly and sincerely, though: Fuck these guys.
