Cornwall councillors banned from using social media platform

Marazion Town Council took the decision following concerns about X's AI tool Grok.

Just to be clear, fsck Xitter with a 🌵. That Nazi bar needs to die.

But something tells me the eagerness for banning Xitter is not about Xitter, nor the #AISAM (AI-generated Sexual Abuse Materials) on it. It's about power, specifically power to block services politicians dislike.

In many places they already have that power of course (UK, for example), but this is a high profile case where blocking is very popular. It's a flex.

If they were serious about the harms, they'd simply quit Xitter.

Because let's be real, it's going to be out there now, including on the #Fediverse and that means it will be a reason to #block #fediblock

What #Grok generates is non-consensual and abusive. It is not "AI porn", it's AI sexual abuse materials. "#AISAM", let's call it.

Sex work is work, there are plenty of sex workers trying to make a living publishing their own works.

Conflating porn with sexual abuse materials is how we get to a place where independent sex workers get ostracized and lose their livelihood through being banned by payment processors, while a fascist oligarch can materially benefit from sexual abuse materials.
