Elon Musk’s X (Twitter) is now training its Grok AI using your data – here’s how to stop it
In this article:
- Elon Musk’s X, formerly known as Twitter, added a setting allowing the network to use users’ information to train its Grok AI.
- The new setting is “on” by default for most users, enabling the network to gather information from posts and other site interactions.
- The setting states: “To continuously improve your experience, we may utilize your X posts as well as your user interactions, inputs and results with Grok for training and fine-tuning purposes.”
- User interactions, inputs, and results may also be shared with the service provider xAI for training and fine-tuning purposes.
- The change was made with little fanfare and likely went unnoticed by many users.
- Musk announced the start of Grok’s training this week on X, promising “the world’s most powerful AI by every metric by December this year.”
