In the latest in a string of privacy abuses from the chatbot, Grok provided porn performer Siri Dahl's full legal name and birthdate to the public, information she'd protected until now.
I’m simply asking if there any reason to believe this. You know, beyond, “Oh yeah, that’s totally something Musk would do?” As crimes go, it would be like writing your own name and address on a bank’s wall.
Apparently the answer is no, we have no evidence to support this hypothesis.
If you were an arrogant narcissistic maniac who knew for absolutely certain that you could rob that bank in full daylight, and NEVER be punished for it, of course you would write your name on the wall.
I’m not going to fabricate stories, but if the explanation for something is “AI was used irresponsibly” then I would tend to not dismiss the idea. And I’d be prone to propagate the idea far more. It’s not a conscious choice mind you, that statement is a result of self-reflection.
The way people unquestionably, irresponsibly, and without the slighest contemplation of the ramifications, are using AI for the most mundane tasks, worries me. Why do you need to make a photo of someone, who haven’t accepted the use case, into a drawing? Why do you need to have an AI transcribe our meeting and summarize the points? Nobody’s going to read the summary anyway, and now some unknown entity knows what other people said with an otherwise ordinary expectation of privacy.
One thing is that tech overlords have already scraped every image, sound bite, video clip, and written word publicly, and semi-publicly, available. Don’t give them more material.
The personal risk isn’t in talking to AI, it’s in listening to AI. And our environment is already becoming crowded with it. There is an argument that AI is disproportionately expensive and exploits externalities, but it’s hard to take that argument seriously from meat eating motorists.
Hey hey now, calm down, there’s no need to get personal here :-) We both dislike AI, can’t we just agree to hate AI and leave it at that? Like Legolas and Gimli in LotR? I’ll even let you toss me…
My main concern about AI is that it’s rotting our cognitive abilities, yours seem to be founded in an environmental stance. I can respect that, and I think it’s a valid argument.
The personal risk isn’t in talking to AI, it’s in listening to AI.
I think both are bad, but can we agree to “AI bad. Don’t use AI”?
Actually, no, I’m pro AI. I’m anti-capitalist. Much like how I’m pro housing and anti slums, pro food security and anti gouging. I strongly agree that AI is being used to manipulate and control us, and I believe it is the most effective tool to that end that any generation has ever faced.
My complaints are actually NOT rooted in environmentalism, I just acknowledge the point.
AI is going to be food and water for the human race and needs to be accessible and democratized. AI exclusively in the hands of private corporations is as bad as water in their hands.
We have common opponents, even if we disagree philosophically.

Now you’re getting it. MAGA dragged us into a post-truth world, so now they have to live with it, too.
I understand people’s concerns about AI but it’s getting harder to take them seriously when half of their concerns are just made up speculation.
AI clearly needs stronger regulation, however all these people constantly spreading their just-so story criticism of it aren’t helping.
