- Less than a week after introducing Grok-2 and Grok-2 Mini, Musk's newest AI tools have actually landed in a debate for creating outrageous images.
- From Barack Obama revealed doing drugs to Mickey Mouse bring a weapon, the uncontrolled nature of the tool appears hazardous.
- Elon Musk appears to be knowledgeable about what his tools are doing, however he simply does not care.
Elon Musk just recently revealed his brand-new image generation tool Grok-2 and Grok-2 Mini, however they've been making the headings for the incorrect factors: for creating offending images.
Musk has actually constantly been understood for not playing by the guidelines. Even when he introduced his AI company xAI and the very first AI design Grok, he didn't follow the exact same rigorous standards that other AI tools made by OpenAI and Google follow.
He states it's to prevent political disturbance, however it likewise indicates that there's definitely no guardrail to avoid his tools from going awry. This is what has actually occurred this time around.
Grok 2 and Grok 2 Mini appear to have no policies. After the tools were released, a couple of users shared some images they produced utilizing the tool– and they were terrible, to state the least.
It's worth keeping in mind that the outrageous images aren't simply restricted to political leaders, as an image revealed Mickey Mouse bring a weapon. It's clear that these image generators can be utilized to develop hyper-realistic deepfakes of genuine people. It likewise does not appear to follow any copyright law.
To a great deal of individuals, this may appear all enjoyable and video games, however let's not forget that it can extremely rapidly take an extremely unsafe and dark turn. We've currently seen individuals utilizing AI to develop specific pictures of stars in spite of putting policies in location. Picture what harmful stars will do if they get their hands on an AI image generator without any guidelines.
What Does Musk Have to Say about This?
Elon Musk does not appear to comprehend the gravity of the circumstance. I state this due to the fact that he shared a post on X on Wednesday stating “Grok is one of the most enjoyable AI worldwide!”
He likewise indicated a thread on X where a user revealed the various triggers one can utilize to develop intriguing outcomes. Needless to state, the images therein were, as soon as again, deepfakes of recognized figures.
Plus, when a user tweeted about the image generator stating that the trolling allowed by it would be “impressive,” Musk merely retweeted it. This goes on to reveal that he's conscious of what the tool can and most likely supports it.
