Why Is AI So Bad at Generating Images of Kamala Harris?

“poorer facial recognition for darker skin tones and femme features” may affect the sorting of images of Harris for automated labeling.

Grok is different from some high-profile AI image generators in that it allows users to create faked photos of political figures.

X’s AI tool Grok lacks effective guardrails preventing election disinformation, new study finds

The Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) studied Grok and determined it lacks “effective guardrails” that would stop users from creating “potentially misleading images” about 2024 candidates or election information, according to a new study

#X 📉 US-Umsatz im 2. Quartal 2024 von 114 Mio. $ (25 % weniger als 1. Quartal; 53 % weniger als in 2023). 👀 CEO Yaccarino war es die Musk vorschlug #CCDH (Center for Countering Digital Hate) zu verklagen wegen deren Studie zu hate speech & misinformation auf X 🎁 www.nytimes.com/2024/07/27/t...

Ms. Yaccarino, 60, has forged a bond with her 53-year-old boss, chatting often by text message, according to one of the people, who, like many interviewed, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss sensitive details. Some of Mr. Musk’s friends have counseled her on how she should interact with the willful billionaire, or even offered to act as an intermediary with him. More strikingly, some of her friends and former colleagues have begged her to quit.

“You have to know this about Linda: Quitting equals failure, and Linda cannot allow herself to fail,” said Lou Paskalis, a longtime ad executive and friend who has publicly criticized her decision to work for Mr. Musk. “She is cashing in her sterling reputation to be Elon’s chief apology officer.”Within weeks, Ms. Yaccarino suggested to Mr. Musk that Twitter sue the C.C.D.H. The resulting lawsuit, filed in late July, claimed that the C.C.D.H. had harmed the company’s advertising business and that the group used improper methodology to gather its findings. (The suit was dismissed in March; X has appealed.)

Elon Musk accused of profiting from tragedy as study finds X rewards hate targeting Israel-Gaza war

The CCDH is accusing him of embracing hateful accounts and configuring X so that purveyors of hate speech are able and encouraged to turn war and human suffering into an opportunity to raise their profiles

A federal court has thrown out Elon Musk/Twitters lawsuit against the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH).

Bottom line, Researchers, Journalists and others absolutely have a first amendment right to criticize social media platforms and their moderation processes, without fear of being the subject of a lawsuit.

Center for Countering Digital Hate: Musk scheitert auf ganzer Linie mit Millionenklage gegen NGO computerbase.de/2024-03/center

2024-03-26

Judge rules against Elon Musk and criticizes Musk for using courts to intimidate researchers.

“This case is about punishing the Defendants for their speech.”

“The Court is concerned that X Corp’s desire to amend its breach of contract claim has a dilatory motive — forcing CCDH to spend more time and money defending itself before it can hope to get out from under this potentially ruinous #litigation,” he wrote.

Elon Musk reçoit un gros coup de rÚgle sur les doigts, un juge vient de rejeter ses actions juridiques contre des défenseurs anti-propos haineux (le Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) )

Guess What? #MuskX plans to appeal this decision!

“Sometimes it is unclear what is driving a litigation,” wrote District Judge Charles Breyer, (California). “Other times, a complaint is so unabashedly and vociferously about one thing that there can be no mistaking that purpose.”

“This case represents the latter circumstance,” Breyer continued. “This case is about punishing the Defendants for their speech.”

Kann man bitte in dem Artikel die #slapp-Thematik aufnehmen? Genau das ist es nÀmlich:
"SLAPP (engl. strategic lawsuit against public participation = Strategische Klage gegen öffentliche Beteiligung; engl. slap = Ohrfeige, Schlag ins Gesicht) ist ein Akronym fĂŒr eine rechtsmissbrĂ€uchliche Form der Klage, die den Zweck hat, Kritiker einzuschĂŒchtern und ihre öffentlich vorgebrachte Kritik zu unterbinden. Sie wird in den meisten FĂ€llen von Unternehmen, seltener von Privatpersonen oder Behörden, gegen NGOs oder Individuen angestrengt, welche die GeschĂ€ftspraktiken des Unternehmens, die AktivitĂ€ten des Individuums oder der Behörde öffentlich kritisieren. "

It was pretty clear from the start this was #Musk and #Twitter trying to get back at the #CCDH for saying what everybody knows anyway. Musk is only a #FreeSpeechAbsolutist when it comes to speech he agrees with.
