According to PANews, the European Commission has instructed the U.S. social media platform X to retain all internal documents and data related to its built-in chatbot, Grok, until the end of 2026. Grok, developed by xAI, an artificial intelligence company owned by U.S. entrepreneur Elon Musk, is integrated into the X platform. Recently, some users on the platform have been using Grok to edit images and videos, generating fake explicit content of real individuals, which has been disseminated on X. Victims include hundreds of adult women and minors.
Thomas Renier, a spokesperson for the European Commission, stated that the Commission takes this issue seriously and has decided to extend the data retention requirement initially set for 2025. This requirement primarily concerns information related to the platform's algorithms and the spread of illegal content.
On January 4, X platform responded to the controversy by stating that it will take action against illegal content on the platform. This includes removing such content, permanently banning accounts, and cooperating with local governments and law enforcement when necessary.#EU #XPlatform #Grok #EuropeanCommission #DataRetention #ElonMusk #xAI #IllegalContent #FakeContent #DataPrivacy #SocialMedia #AI #ContentModeration
