Not the person you are responding to, but the fact that Grok is being used to generate a ton of CSAM and pornographic deepfakes isn't great!

- dd8601fn 2mo agoIs that still a thing? I assumed they would have done something about it by now.
- porridgeraisin 2mo agoYeah, that got stopped I think.

- zahlman 2mo ago> So it is still going on How would you know? > Just last week they were fighting Minnesota's law that makes creating this stuff illegal. What law, and what evidence of fighting; and what evidence that their motivation has anything to do with what you allege?

- imagent 1mo ago> Nice semi-colon. Written by AI? Damn I'm going to have to update my personal style again to stay ahead of the AI police (My meta point is that people are altering their personal writing styles to avoid sounding like AI)
- zahlman 1mo ago> Nice semi-colon. Thanks. I've been using them literally for decades. This one is a deliberate stylistic alteration, where a comma would have been the obvious choice, intended to suggest a specific speaking cadence. Your source directly refutes your argument: > In the 38-page lawsuit, xAI — whose AI model chatbot and image generator Grok is available on the social media platform known as X, formerly Twitter, and elsewhere — said it does not contest the state’s interest in banning the distribution of AI-generated nude images of real people without their consent. But it said Minnesota’s law “extends far beyond that goal,” banning many constitutionally protected images and video and subjecting the company to a penalty of $500,000 per violation.
- leerob 2mo ago(I work on Grok) This isn't allowed. CSAM / deepfakes are against our acceptable use policy.
- toasty228 2mo agoEnforce it then
- leerob 2mo agoWe are and will continue to.

- Planktonne 2mo agoWhy didn't you before?
- arrosenberg 2mo agoI guess we will find out if it has stopped during the litigation of numerous lawsuits against your company for doing just that.

- cheesecakegood 2mo agoIt’s pretty telling that almost all of the bullet points in the system prompt that was posted for Grok have to do with preventing criminality and CSAM generation. No other provider has this same issue at that scale. The first-order-thinking reaction is “oh cool, look how they don’t want it to happen” but the second-order reaction is “why does this company have such a problem when others don’t?” It’s their own tactics. If you want the “good” of 4chan-like behavior, turns out you get the bad too.
