While this story is a couple of weeks old, it's worth a quick mention for the headline which reads:

"NZ Parliament announces it will no longer post on X"

Unfortunately it doesn't mean that our MPs have suddenly grown consciences. The decision was made by the Clerk of the House, Mr David Wilson.

Wilson stopped posting on Xitter because of "the way X’s AI chatbot Grok can be used to generate deepfake nudes and child exploitation material..."

Unsurprisingly Winston Peters finds himself on the wrong side of history, again, bravely stating "This is how freedoms are lost."

If Peters is defending the 'freedom' to produce deepfakes and child sexual exploitation images on a global scale, he's more doolally than we thought.
