>The posts, which the government says „go against British values and decency“, were generated after X users asked Grok to create „vulgar“ posts about Liverpool and Manchester United, telling the AI tool to not hold back.
TLDR: People asked the AI to be offensive and then the AI was offensive.
Government isn’t happy because anything other than sunshine and rainbows is “dangerous” apparently.

Tool users find a way to use a tool in a hostile manner. Tool manufacturer is to blame!
We don’t see this attitude with cordless angle grinders despite the fact they’re the best thing since sliced bread if you want to go stealing. No-one seems to want to complain about DeWalt and Milwaukee making them. No-one seems to want to license them or put arbitrary restrictions on them. Put obvious software in your tool and suddenly you become responsible for users finding ways to utilise your tools in a manner others dislike.

British values are when you demand the removal of posts on the internet. The more posts you remove, the more British it is

I genuinely wonder sometimes if people don’t realise that Grok doesn’t actually post anything knowingly. Why attack the tool and not the people using it?

Some of the stuff it generated was absolutely vile. How people can think it is acceptable to generate and share such stuff is beyond me.

Breaking news: football fans are downright horrid towards other teams.
This isn’t exactly news, football fans have been chanting fucking disgusting things since football started. The only thing is the meatheads that would start these sorts of things have run out of their own ideas and started using technology instead.

>The UK government says it is „sickening and irresponsible“ that X’s AI tool Grok generated explicit and derogatory posts about the Hillsborough
Crazy idea, but perhaps suggest to their MPs not to use that shithole site? It was pretty shitty before Elon came and the far right got emboldened.

For those of you who haven’t clicked through its about posts on the Hillsborough and Heysel disasters, the death of Diogo Jota and the Munich air disaster.

So a computer program spontaneously sent obscene messages to people? Or did someone deliberately spent significant effort to prompt it to make outrages and sickening responses?

People need to stop getting so upset about generated content. If it’s a picture or a video: it’s not real, it never happened. If it’s words: well, these knobheads would just write an offensive tweet themselves otherwise. The people that use it to generate offensive content are twats, yes, they’re the same people who already make songs about Hillsborough or Heysel or whatever, and our anger should be directed at them, not gen AI tools.

Presumably it’s supporters of rival clubs requesting the vile content. Perhaps they should stop doing that.

Broke works on a max freedom to innovation model for work productivity. Problem 25 percent of Internet is porn. So restricting models are needed. Which by the by can be hacked. So.. I think we should try anyhow really.

Stop fucking using twitter then, they won’t care one about these hollow statements.
