X users are outraged that an Elon Musk-founded company used their data to train the AI Grok without consent.
Users on X are in an uproar. They discovered that an Elon Musk-founded company has been accessing personal data from the social media platform to train AI. The AI in question is Grok, a chatbot known for its “twist of humour and a dash of rebellion.”“Twitter just activated a setting by default for everyone that gives them the right to use your data to train Grok. They never announced it,” tweeted one irate user.
However, X users were not informed or asked for their consent before their data was used. “It’s outrageous that they just decided to use our data without telling us,” said another user.X has indicated that it “may” use information from posts, user interactions, inputs, and results for Grok training purposes.
Protect your privacy by deleting your conversation history with Grok and being cautious about the information you share on the platform.In the wake of this controversy, it’s clear that users demand more transparency and control over their data.
