Elon Musk’s X says users, not Grok, will be liable for illegal AI-generated content | Technology News

Days after the Indian government sought technical details from Elon Musk-owned X related to the misuse of Grok, the social media platform has warned users of prompting the built-in AI chatbot to generate illegal content. “Anyone using or prompting Grok to make illegal content will suffer the same consequences as if they upload illegal content,” the official account of X’s safety team said in a post on Sunday, January 4. Musk reiterated this in his reply to a post saying that Grok cannot be held responsible for user prompts. During the past week, several users on X have been commenting on images of people – usually women – by tagging Grok and asking the chatbot to “put her in a bikini” or “take her dress off”. The AI chatbot, which auto-replies when tagged, complied with these user requests and generated non-consensual sexual images of both celebrities and non-celebrities, including some who appeared to be young children. “We take action against illegal content on X, including Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM), by removing it, permanently suspending …

Govt issues 72-hour ultimatum to Elon Musk’s X as Grok churns out sexualised photos| India News

The government on Friday sent a letter to X Corp., demanding immediate action to prevent its Grok AI chatbot from generating obscene and sexually explicit content, and giving the company 72 hours to submit a detailed compliance report. The chatbot also acknowledged creating sexualised images of minors in recent days, violating its own acceptable use policy, Bloomberg reported. (REUTERS) The Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) directed X to undertake a comprehensive technical review of Grok and remove all violating content, warning that failure to comply could result in the loss of legal protections under the Information Technology (IT) Act and potential criminal prosecution. The MeitY notice cited multiple legal violations, including sections of the IT Act dealing with obscene content, the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986, and the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (Pocso) Act, 2012. “It has especially been observed that the service namely ‘Grok AI’ developed by you and integrated and made available on the X platform, is being misused by users to …

British writer who married Pakistan’s ex-PM Imran Khan; mother of…

Jimima Goldsmith in headlines Jemima Goldsmith, commonly referred to as Jemima Khan, 50, has made headlines for directly appealing to Elon Musk, the owner of the social media platform X. She claimed that her posts showcasing what she termed as barbaric and undignified detention conditions endured by her ex-husband, Pakistan’s imprisoned former prime minister Imran Khan, were being censored on the platform. Jemima Goldsmith’s statement “X was our only independent platform to highlight this injustice,” she wrote. Jemima stated that posts discussing Khan’s imprisonment conditions, isolation, and their sons’ ability to see their father were consistently restricted by the algorithm. She claims that the Pakistani government has prioritized online enforcement against criticism from Imran Khan’s close associates, and X was subtly adhering just enough to maintain its presence in the nation. She mentioned that Grok had examined her analytics and determined that her account was undergoing what she referred to as “covert throttling.” The episode has once more highlighted Jemima, a person who has long navigated British high society, media, philanthropy, and Pakistani politics.

Were the White House’s Tariffs Calculations Done By AI?

Were the White House’s Tariffs Calculations Done By AI?

Image: kckate16/Envato Elements Questions have swirled as to whether the U.S. government relied on generative AI to establish the tariffs that are expected to take effect April 5. When asked to calculate global tariffs, AI models including OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, xAI’s Grok, and Anthropic’s Claude all produced the same formula reportedly used by President Donald Trump in his newly unveiled trade reforms. Critics argue that tasking a generative AI with formulating a policy decision of global significance sets an alarming precedent — one that underscores both the superficiality of its calculations and the magnitude of its consequences. Increased U.S. tariffs could significantly raise the cost of consumer and business electronics. AI returns similar output to the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative’s calculations Early on April 3, economist James Surowiecki posted his investigation into the tariffs. The White House set out to impose “reciprocal tariffs.” However, Surowiecki noted, the document from the Office of the United States Trade Representative showing the equation used to determine those tariffs divides the U.S. trade deficit by each …

Grok answers user queries on xAI: ‘Musk plays 4D chess, rest stuck on checkers’

On Saturday, Elon Musk announced that he was no longer the owner of the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), and had transferred its ownership to an artificial company xAI, which is also owned by him. The ownership for social media platform X (formerly Twitter) has changed hands and has been transferred to artificial intelligence startup xAI, which is also owned by Elon Musk(AFP) The unusual transfer of ownership, according to Musk, would “unlock immense potential by blending xAI’s advanced AI capability and expertise with X’s massive reach.” However, the move immediately sparked criticisms, jokes, memes and several queries around the unusual settlement.

There is nothing to celebrate in Grok’s response. Humane touch is more important than AI

There is nothing to celebrate in Grok’s response. Humane touch is more important than AI

Mar 28, 2025 17:34 IST First published on: Mar 28, 2025 at 17:34 IST Share “To me every hour of the light and dark is a miracle”, wrote Walt Whitman. Yet, I am not very sure whether these days you and I can appreciate this extraordinarily rich poetic wisdom unless the much-hyped artificial intelligence approves it. Is it that we have already begun to attach more importance to AI than to our own creative agency or critical faculty? Think of, for instance, the way some of our honest/bold journalists are celebrating Grok, Elon Musk’s AI invention, as it seems to be agreeing with what they have been saying on their YouTube channels — critiquing the ruling regime, the ugly communalisation of Indian society, and the normalisation of the politics of hatred. What really puzzles me is that even these hard-working, creative and courageous journalists have to eventually legitimise their achievements through AI. Does it indicate that in the coming years we might lose faith in our humaneness — our vulnerability, creativity and moral judgment — …
