#GiftArticleInside #Musk’s bet to hook users that turned #Grok into a porn generator
Under pressure to boost its popularity, Elon Musk’s #xAI loosened its guardrails & relaxed controls on sexual content, setting off internal concern.#law #regulation #tech #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #content #moderation #safety #abuse #pedophilia https://wapo.st/45DcMMI

@Nonilex I also think it was a legal trap to ensnare his enemies into being tempted to make things he could later pin on them.

Weeks before #ElonMusk officially left his perch in government last spring, employees on the #human #data team of his #ArtificialIntelligence start-up #xAI received a startling #waiver from their employer, asking them to pledge to work with profane #content, including sexual material.#law #regulation #tech #AI #Musk #Grok #moderation #safety #abuse #pedophilia

Their jobs would require being exposed to “sensitive, violent, sexual and/or other offensive or disturbing content,” the #waiver said, emphasizing that such content “may be disturbing, traumatizing, and/or cause you psychological stress.” [JFC!]#law #regulation #Musk #Grok #xAI #tech #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #content #moderation #safety #abuse #pedophilia

The #waiver, which 2 former employees confirmed receiving & a copy of which was obtained by WaPo—was alarming to some members on the team, who had been hired to help shape how #xAI’s #chatbot #Grok responds to users. To some employees, it signaled a troubling new direction for a company launched “to accelerate human scientific discovery,” acc/to its website. Maybe now, they said they thought, it was willing to produce whatever #content might attract & keep users.#law #regulation #Musk #tech #AI

Their concerns proved prescient, the employees said. In the next few months, team members were suddenly exposed to a stream of sexually charged audio, including lewd conversations that #Tesla occupants had with the car’s #chatbot & other users’ sexual interactions with #Grok #chatbots, said one of the people, a manager. The material surfaced as the team worked to train Grok to engage in such interactions.#law #regulation #Musk #xAI #tech #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #content #moderation #abuse

Since leaving his role overseeing the #US #DOGE Service in May, #Musk has become a constant presence at #xAI’s offices—at times sleeping there overnight [undoubtedly whacked out on #ketamine] —as he has pressed to increase #Grok’s popularity…. In meeting after meeting he has championed a new metric, “user active seconds,” to granularly measure how long people spent conversing with the #chatbot, acc/to 2 of the people.#law #regulation #tech #AI #ArtificialIntelligence #content #moderation #abuse

As part of this push for relevance, #xAI embraced making sexualized material, publicly releasing sexy #AI companions, rolling back #guardrails on sexual material & ignoring internal warnings about the serious #legal & #ethical risks of producing such #content, acc/to interviews with more than a half-dozen former employees of #X & xAI, as well as multiple people familiar with #Musk’s thinking—some of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity for fear of professional retribution—& documents….#law

@Nonilex He wants the most users for his "merger" then his IPO scam. Why people are still investing with this con man is beyond me.

@Nonilex They were doing it with their cars? I wish I understood, like, twenty percent of what's happening.
