xAI’s new Grok feature is creating a flood of deepfakes.
“Subscribers to X Premium, which grants access to Grok, have been posting everything from Barack Obama doing cocaine to Donald Trump with a pregnant woman who (vaguely) resembles Kamala Harris to Trump and Harris pointing guns. With US elections approaching and X already under scrutiny from regulators in Europe, it’s a recipe for a new fight over the risks of generative AI.”
The cat’s out of the bag unfortunately. I can download stable or unstable diffusion on my home PC and make it generate all kinds of stuff. It’s open source so you can’t really stop that knowledge from spreading.
You can however recognize that the majority of people won’t do that, and write rules around software that is delivered as a service or for a fee. That would stop 90% of it.
So while regulating GenAI is possible, it’s not full fix. GenAI is kind of still the risk.
A lot of the commercially available image generators will block certain terms, like copyrighted characters or presidential candidates, or celebrities in their underwear. You can of course do this all without limits on your own hosted versions of stable diffusion and whatnot. But a commercially available option without any limits is actually news.
Interesting. Just tested this on the publicly o one I use and typed in “President Biden, White house”. Sure enough it produced pictures of him standing within the White House but none of them had his face being displaying correctly. Either messed up, blurred out or just looked horrifying.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Generative AI isn’t the real risk. It’s letting musk go unchecked that is.

Can it do musk in a dress getting railed by a gun held by trump?
Pitcher and catcher
I’m not going to join Twitter to find out.
LMAOROLFZ…
I used it to make this picture of Elon and convicted Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell hanging out, crazy how realistic AI got
It fucked up his jaw.
It fucked up his whole face, no real human looks like that.
They do if they take enough ketamine
No, that looks right to me.
I mean, can’t you do this with any AI?

Oh boy! Can’t wait to experience the ramifications of this one!
What’s next? Gonna try to recreate Deep Impact, just to see?
Oh that’s what Grok is. Unnecessary attention for Flux. Musk is going to ruin it for us all.
I hate the 2020s so fucking much
