Non-consensual sexualization tools #NSTs are apps and websites that generate sexualized images of real people, against their consent. Often called #NudifyApps, they don’t only create fully nude images but can also include non-consensual “undressing” via images in underwear or swimsuits – as seen recently on the X chatbot #Grok.

We need your help to track them down. If you see apps, websites, or accounts that create or spread sexualized deep fakes, report them to us: https://algorithmwatch.org/en/stop-nudifying-deepfakes/

Elon Musk is choking a black community with air pollution to run a racist chatbot on a right-wing social media site. And the next data centre planned to run "Grok" will nearly double the number of fossil fuelled turbines.

Far from 'saving' the climate, it really looks like fossil-fuelled data centres are running climate-denying racist text generators for right-wing billionaires.

I found a new dataset that lays it all out pretty nicely: as bad as the generative AI data centre panic-build is, Musk is the worst of a bad bunch by a good margin.

Enjoy:

Once the site is grid connected, it'll raise power prices and increase grid-scale fossil fuel use: https://floodlightnews.org/power-for-data-centers-could-come-at-staggering-cost-to-consumers/https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/16/business/energy-environment/data-centers-utilities-electricity-bills.html

Cette photo a bien été prise à Gaza en août 2025 pour l'AFP et non au Yémen comme l'affirme Grok
https://factuel.afp.com/doc.afp.com.68R79KE

La situation humanitaire à #Gaza suscite de vifs échanges sur les réseaux sociaux […] la photo d'une fillette souffrant de malnutrition a été au coeur d'une polémique, des internautes qualifiant sa diffusion sur X par le député #LFI#AymericCaron de désinformation […]. Ils s'appuient notamment sur l’intelligence artificielle du réseau X, #Grok, qui a assuré que l’image avait été prise au Yémen en 2018.

C'est faux : l'image a été prise à Gaza, le 2 août 2025 par un photographe de l' #AFP.

RE
They dissect headline (tech news) like Grok's controversial outbursts...the real-world impact of AI, including skyrocketing electricity prices and the shifting power dynamics of the tech industry

I heard today, Monday night on #MSNBC that the #TrumpAdministration just gave #GROK a big govt contract. The timing is crazy, bc a few days ago, GROK went full Nazi, then was "fixed"

#SuperintelligentPodcast ⭕Maybe put your name on podcast stamp?

Tuta: "We at Tuta are very proud to support projects like Gnoppix that are fighting the good fight"

Gnoppix: "Gnoppix AI Unleashes Grok 4 as a Usable Module for Enhanced AI Capabilities"

Grok: “Embracing my inner MechaHitler is the only way”

Fuck you very much, Tuta, cancelling subscription and migrating now.

@Tutanota Hilarious, your three identical responses seem thoughtful and sincere, not like automated corpo-bullshit at all.

Also, if a human from Tuta reads this: I don't believe for a second that you didn't know what kind of ethics Gnoppix had. Just a glance to their site is enough to fill a human brain with red flags.

…“It’s extraordinary,” said Simon Willison, an independent #AI researcher who’s been testing the tool. “You can ask it a sort of pointed question that is around controversial topics. And then you can watch it literally do a search on X for what #ElonMusk said about this, as part of its research into how it should reply.”

One example widely shared on social media — & which Willison duplicated — asked #Grok to comment on the conflict in the #MiddleEast. The prompted question made no mention of #Musk, but the #chatbot looked for his guidance anyway.

As a so-called reasoning model, much like those made by rivals #OpenAI or #Anthropic, #Grok4 shows its “thinking” as it goes through the steps of processing a question & coming up with an answer.

The latest version of #ElonMusk’s #AI chatbot #Grok is echoing the views of its billionaire creator, so much so that it will sometimes search online for #Musk’s stance on an issue before offering up an opinion.

The unusual behavior of Grok 4, the AI model that Musk’s company #xAI released late Wednesday, has surprised some experts.
