Grok must be outlawed, it’s truly sickening!

Limited liability companies are “limited” in the sense that there are limited on the responsibilities of the members of the corporation. The CEO can’t be held personality liable for the actions of the company, for example; their underlings could have been responsible and kept the leader in the dark.
However, there’s this interesting legal standard wherein it is possible to “pierce the corporate veil” and hold corporate leadership accountable for illegal actions their company took, if you can show that by all reasonable standards they must or should have known about the illegal activity.
Anyway Elon has been elbow-deep in the inner workings of Xitter for years now, but his own annotation, right? Really getting in there to tinker and build new stuff, like Grok and its image generation tools. Seems like he knows an awful lot about how that works. An awful lot.

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

The law is a funny creature. I own a business myself (just started, actually!) and it would suck to be brought up on charges I have no idea about but I’m being held personally liable for. I’m grateful for the LLC protection in that case. Of course, I’m also not planning on committing any crimes, nor having my business commit crimes, so it’s a minor worry. Really only important in the event the law gets weaponised against the people, say for example by a foreign asset in high office… 😬

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.

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.

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.

The blame kinda rests with the creators of the tool as well as the content, no?
fruitycoder@sh.itjust.works 20 hours ago
“Twitter users use child porn machine to make millions of images of child porn.” Would be accurate imho. Legally though AI generated works are owned by no one because the machine made it but cant own it.

ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 1 day ago
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.
prole@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 day ago
And that’s the “leftist propaganda” according to MAGA. PBS and NPR have so overcorrected, and in exchange have gotten nothing but defunded
ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 1 day ago
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.

Because the US seems to be supportive of it. They lashed out at governments who’ve said to resolve it or face site bans.

Gorilladrums@lemmy.world 1 day ago
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.
fluffykittycat@slrpnk.net 1 day ago
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

I mean agree that we should prevent it in such obvious cases like this, I was just making the point that this is going to be a very persistent issue.

JensSpahnpasta@feddit.org 1 hour ago
Let’s be clear here: It is not Grok. Grok is a software developed by employees of Elon Musk that is capable of generating child porn and deep fakes of ordinary people. That software doesn’t have the saveguards to prevent this and was released to the public. Elon Musk, the whole leadership of X.com and their employees there were made aware that this is happening and did nothing for several days. So let’s not pretend that some “Grok” was doing it.
