I keep a mental “reality rating” of friends and cohorts when it comes to political accuracy. People, mostly libstanks, like to vomitously spew out political “facts” they believe to be true, which a 30-second web search will usually prove false.
Today, when a member of a cohort with a “reality rating” of 0% (she hasn’t been right even once) gleefully asked me if I had heard that Elon Musk’s Grok AI was churning out nude pictures of celebrities and even kids, I honestly said I had not heard this “fact.” But I knew one thing for sure: It’s a lie. I was right.
So where did she hear the “news” that Grok was churning out illegal “pornography”? The usual suspects.
I believe it started with Reuters and this headline: “Elon Musk’s Grok AI floods X with sexualized photos of women and minors.”
Let me give you a little inside baseball when it comes to liberal news outlets writing headlines: reality is an option. Also, the clowns at Reuters know that people frequently never read beyond the headlines. And for those who do, Reuters offers a “summary” of the story. I added the italics:
- Elon Musk’s Grok is generating non-consenting sexualized images of women and minors
- Politicians in France ask prosecutors to investigate; India demands answers
- Experts have long warned Grok owner xAI about potential misuses of AI-generated content
