For days, xAI has remained silent after its chatbot Grok admitted to generating sexualized AI images of minors, which could be categorized as violative child sexual abuse materials (CSAM) in the US.

    Journalists that interview LLMs need a slap. It’s not an admission of wrong-doing if the LLM is the source.

      Everybody that tries to normalize interactions with LLMs as if they’re humans deserves public shaming.

      “Interview with Winka Dinka the newest AI pop star!” should end a journalist’s career, and I’m not joking.

        It should actually disqualify them from ever being referred to as a “journalist” ever again, unless it’s specifically qualified somehow, like “failed journalist”, or “fraudulent journalist”. Not that there are a lot of real journalists left, but we can at least start properly labeling the ones who aren’t.

          Unfortunately yes, you are correct. I have met a surprising number of people who do not understand ChatGPT is mimicking conversations, they believe it actually thinks and holds a personality of it’s own.

      I agree with you but since those CEOs have been all over the media saying how reliable their LLMs are, i think it makes statements by their AIs that are against them valid, according to them.

      If anything, it might make them stop or slow down their push if their AIs keep criminalising them, which is a win-win. Although i doubt it, since little crybabies never learn or know how to take responsibility for their negative behaviours.

      I asked the magic 8 ball if it is always right. It said yes.

      Your honor, that’s the proof!
