We are very well aware of the fact that X for Grok is now offering a spicy mode showing explicit sexual content with some output generated with childlike images:
๐ A detailed request for information on Grok has been sent to X, and we are reviewing the companyโs responses.
๐ X has been ordered to retain all internal documents and data concerning Grokโs features until the end of 2026.
The Digital Services Act is very clear:
In the EU, all platforms have to get their own house in order.

Or call it what it is: non-consensual porn, psychological violence, (re-)traumatization.

"a spicy mode"
Is that what you're calling non-consensual adult and child pornography now?
"spicy"
Wow
Don't be too harsh now
Wouldn't want to hurt the feelings of any porn enjoyers, would you now?

So you're partly responsible for what's been happening.
You're not exactly a nobody, you should lead by example. Stop saying you're concerned, leave Twitter once and for all, and sanction it to oblivion.

That could be part of the thing. We have a President who traded in the real thing. Tossing out some simulations that are adult looking on "accident" would be a very evil, shrewd piece of propaganda these people are fully capable of.

And all this is just meaningless political theater if institutions and officials are STILL continue to use X.

Don't be sitting here watering down this issue for a later review. This is very illegal stuff we're dealing with here not to mention how morally awful it is for an untold number of people out there.

And every Games is not just a contest of athletic skill, it's the Olympics of social media content moderation. The IOC, thanks to an effective legal team, gets the level of service from social media companies that normal people and even advertisers don't.
Watch how well "X" (which has so much trouble with moderation of scams and harassing images) is somehow able to keep their app clear of unauthorized Olympics content. 1/2

It is illegal and abuse and to stand by and continue to watch it happening is outrageous! Shut it down immediately and THEN you can wait til Musk sorts out his mess... If he ever will, that is!
And do you honestly think he will comply with your demands, save all the data? Laughable.

Ditto for dropping Teams completely in favor of Matrix or XMPP, as well as PeerSuite for if you absolutely can't leave a paper trail, in addition to dropping YT in favor of an official PeerTube instance.
Similarly, you could drop Meta if you're still using their services in favor of an official Friendica and Pixelfed instance.
