Can you go on Twitter right now and generate CSAM using Grok?

Are they after a database of trillions of tweets and sensitive user information? Is that all that could possibly progress the case?
Pedro_Ribeiro · 3 days ago
Isn't the algorithm published monthly on GitHub since a couple of weeks ago? You think they are gonna find a commit message "feat(racism): improve antisemitism capabilities".

Not sure what they're gonna prove with this.

If Grok is a child pornography tool then it will be banned. If Elon doesn't want Grok to be banned, he can disable the child pornography feature.

Agreed, thankfully, there is no CSAM feature, and they patched it in a couple of days so that it would stop obeying requests to do so and banned the users abusing Grok for that purpose. Once they prove they have put the appropriate mechanisms in place to make sure it doesn't happen again it's fine and dandy, no?

Read that on X?
Pedro_Ribeiro · 4 days ago
Do you honestly not believe it is likely that EU is importing votes?

Also, haven't you seen the general push towards censorship, attempts to ban VPNs, and all the other shenanigans happening in the EU? Do you believe this is disconnected from the legal attempts on Twitter and Telegram?

Is it really a conspiracy theory at this point? Politicians do all kinds of evil shit, but these playbook tactics are where you draw the line?

I'm European and live here, before you say I'm getting these takes on X.

Yes this is most definitely not related to the attacks on X and Telegram, France is definitely not attempting to crack down on free speech!

> that's a different class of software. I'm talking about other generative AI models

And the article is talking about a social media site. A different class of software and company.

> if you want to ban Grok

Straw man. Nobody has suggested this.

I think he is talking about France who does very much seem like they want to ban X and Grok?

some good takes in this response but complementing jd and elon was absolutely not necessary

When did Hacker News start talking like Reddit?

You do when the fine is more than double your annual revenue in the foreign nation, has international and geopolitical implications, impacts many other US businesses, could harm foreign relations, and will harm regular US citizens.

That's exactly the type of thing the Executive Branch is supposed to deal with.

Do people not understand that companies on this scale are geopolitically important?

I would put it on VR having a grand total of 3 good applications: HL Alyx, VRChat and Beat Saber, one of which was doing the metaverse better than Facebook, and on a shoestring budget.

(I forgot sims).

Besides I wonder what does a company, whose entire product lineup revolves around looking cool and successful and admired in front of strangers with a product whose main mode of usage involves blindly flailing around in a room with a plastic box stripped to your face.

Pedro_Ribeiro · 3 months ago
HL Alyx ruined most VR games for me because they never lived up to Half-Life, and no one but Valve could make such a high-profile game. VR is a genre that benefits A LOT from high budgets.

I enjoyed games like No Man's Sky in VR, but they just don't hit the same high notes.
