Canada has a minister of artificial intelligence, who does not regulate specific in-vehicle software.
I'm the minister of wheat, but don't ask me to regulate banana bread.

The island has been closed for years. Musk needs to get his supply somehow.
"xAI's Grok was created based on a philosophy of sort of absolute, radical openness, and it will talk about anything with anyone," said Mark Daley, chief AI officer at Western University in London, Ont.

“[Musk is] a free speech extremist. He wants Grok to be completely open, to have any conversation with anyone. And that's a principled stance that he's taken, but it may not be what every consumer is looking for.”
Musk is only a self-declared free speech extremist, as anyone who knows anything about how he's handled Xitter and Grok would be quick to point out. Not sure this was a great choice of subject matter expert to interview for this article.
[Musk is] a free speech extremist
No, he isn't.
?
Musk HATES free speech. He loves right wing extremism and conspiracy theories and other brain rot like that, but mentioned human rights or what DEI really means and you'll see how much he really cares about free speech .
FFS, he reprogrammed that grok multiple times because it was stating too many proven facts that Elmo personally disagrees with
Can you imagine having a brain implant from his company? I would fucking double dare you to say something that Elmo doesn't like, he'll fry your ass
He declared that “cis” was a slur and banned Twitter users who used it
This is what happens when you train the AI on Reddit and 4chan posts.
And mainly Xitter which is the number one prioritized source for Grok.
conservatives' insatiable lust for children must be stopped
why are people preaching values and morality constantly on the wrong side? is it all some elaborate ruse?
The part they didn't even address in the article: even if this was NOT a child operating the system, what consumer is asking for a chat bot that responds to a conversation about soccer by veering off into send nudes territory? Where is the target audience who is like 'Oh right, was distracted by the sports, back to the pornography', while driving?
The bot isn’t really cognizant of its own replies.
…Well, it could be with a postfilter, ranging from sanity checking its own reply, to a tiny separate safety model (of which many exist), to a basic keyword check. But apparently Twitter has no resources for such things.
But the point is this isn’t really the intended design.
Musk did it, and now he's blaming it on grok
Moron AI can't tell the difference between scoring a goal or scoring a date! 🤣
And it can't figure out when "send nudes" is a joke, or reeks of pedophilia!
The former is just moronic, but the latter is criminal! Why are we allowing this shit?
