While Grok has introduced belated safeguards to prevent sexualised AI imagery, other tools have far fewer limits
“Since discovering Grok AI, regular porn doesn’t do it for me anymore, it just sounds absurd now,” one enthusiast for the Elon Musk-owned AI chatbot wrote on Reddit. Another agreed: “If I want a really specific person, yes.”
If those who have been horrified by the distribution of sexualised imagery on Grok hoped that last week’s belated safeguards could put the genie back in the bottle, there are many such posts on Reddit and elsewhere that tell a different story.
And while Grok has undoubtedly transformed public understanding of the power of artificial intelligence, it has also pointed to a much wider problem: the growing availability of tools, and means of distribution, that present worldwide regulators with what many view as an impossible task. Even as the UK announces that creating nonconsensual sexual and intimate images will soon be a criminal offence, experts say that the use of AI to harm women has only just begun.
Nah. It’d be a waste of time since you don’t really want a conversation; you want people to agree with you even though you are wrong.
No, I want to know why you disagree with me, so I can see if there’s any merit to what you think. This helps me to learn, just like the other person did (they were still an arsehole afterwards but you can’t have everything).
Our entire interaction has been me saying something (with reasoning), you disagreeing, and me asking in several different ways for literally any reason for your position. You haven’t given any. If from that you’ve concluded all I want is for “people to agree with me” then you must think that about a lot of people. Makes me wonder why the fuck you bother replying to disagree with all these people you assume only want you to agree with them. I can only guess it’s to piss them off.
