    The CEO can’t be held personally liable for the actions of the company, for example; their underlings could have been responsible and kept the leader in the dark.

    The onus should be on the company to prove their employees kept the CEO in the dark, not the other way around.

    Having giant growths in your bladder that mean you can't pee when you want to, and can't stop peeing when you don't want to, will wear ya down.

    That is a tricky question. IT isn't just does the CEO know, but should the CEO have known. If you make a machine that injures people the courts ask should you have expected that.

    The first time someone uses a lawnmower the cut a hedge the companies and gets hurt can say "we never expected someone to be that stupid" - but we now know people do such stupid things and so if you make a lawn mower and someone uses it to cut a hedge the courts will ask why you didn't stop them - the response is then we can't think of how to stop them but look at the warnings we put on.

    When Grok was first used to make porn X can get by with "we didn't think of that". However this is now known. They now need to do more to stop it. there are a number of options. Best is fix Grok so it can't do that; they could also just collect enough information on users that when it happens the police can arrest the person who instructed grok. There are a number of other options, if the court accepts them depends on if the tool is otherwise useful and if whatever they do reduces the amount of porn (or whatever evil) that gets through - perfection isn't needed but it needs to get close.

    Or not very in tune with everything. I learned about all this couple months ago from shitty upbringing keeping me isolated for long time. Depends what kept people knowing about all this. There are some people I know that never heard of all this too because they just focus on living their life day by day

    This is a fucking nightmare. Twitter has effectively become a sexual exploitation generator.

    I have argued extensively with people on lemmy about why having AI porn generated of you without your consent is deeply traumatizing and a violation of your rights and privacy. Actual entire threads of people telling me that AI deep fake porn was perfectly fine and that we're being too sensitive to not want our male peers and random strangers making AI deep fake porn of us. Wonder where those people are now.

    I don't watch PBS News Hour but my parents do and I have to listen to it from time to time. They characterized this issue as one of Grok creating "explicit" AI images and artificially generating pictures of real women (not "girls") in "bathing suits". Not exactly an accurate characterization of CSAM.

    And that's the "leftist propaganda" according to MAGA. PBS and NPR have so overcorrected, and in exchange have gotten nothing but defunded

    In my opinion, the rightward correction has gotten even worse since the defunding. For a long time now they've run a graphic showing their corporate sponsors before each broadcast (Meta and oil companies often show up there). They love to say it's "viewers like you" that make them possible, but I think the corporate sponsors are a lot more important. It's been a very long time since the government funding has even been that big a chunk of their income.

    Why does it say that Grok is doing this? Wouldn't it be more accurate to say that real people are using Grok as a tool to create this shit? Like place the blame where it belongs.

    The blame kinda rests with the creators of the tool as well as the "content" creators, no? And isn't it more important to inform people about what a service is allowing than pointing out what specific users are doing? This is ultimately a reflection of X as well as X users.

    btw if you or anyone still uses X, it's fair to assume you're a pedo and or a nazi.

    X is for nazi pedos

    This is what I want to know. It doesn't do anything unless someone tells it to. Why aren't the people telling it to make child porn being held accountable? My 3D printer can make guns, but they won't send the printer to jail if I decide to tell it to make one.

    If even Grok shut down completely, it doesn't mean anything. Pandora's box is open and AI generated porn is here to stay. There are soooooooooooooooo many websites that exist just to generate deepfake nudes and AI porn. You take down one, another 100 pop up. It's a futile game of whackamole.

    Even if we passed laws banning this shit, the technology that enables it to be a thing is free, open source, and can very easily be modified to do precisely this. Anybody can run these models locally at any time, and nobody can do a thing about it. Basically what I'm trying to say is that we're cooked.

    I mean, yeah, but it's one thing if some perv's running it on their own box after reading 5 guides vs. elon musk having a tiwtter bot that does it for you without even trying to stop it from doing that even after knowing it's doing it. the former is unavoidable, the latter is a choice he's made for some fucking reason

    Yeah NGL. Kind of weird that all the noise is around the machine, that can't be held accountable, because it is a machine, and not on the people actually making the images.

    This is like blaming the camera for recording something illegal.

    Maybe they should look at the hand holding the tool if they want accountability.

    Most AI platforms allow sexualized content to varying degrees. Google, Instagram, Tiktok, etc all host CSAM. Always have. It's been understood that they're not liable to the extent that they remove it when reported. Their detection technology is pretty good as to automatically handle it, but never perfect. They keep track of origins and comply with subpoenas which has gotten tons of people convicted.

    Grok image gen was put behind a paywall, which people claim is worse. However, most people paying lose anonymity and thus can be appropriately handled when they request illicit content, even if Grok refuses the request like it usually does.

    I think the Grok issue is sensationalized and taken out of context of the realities of what happens online and in law enforcement.

    Grok has no agency. Elon played a heavy role in the design of the tool, promotes and profits off its use, and has failed to stop users from producing this material with what can only be considered as a feature of his software

    You‘re probably giving the guy too much credit. I think they use a version of FLUX. Replacing stuff is one of it‘s core features.

    Although he might‘ve ordered to add NSFW related concepts because that‘s definitely what he uses it for almost exclusively.
