This is a fucking nightmare. Twitter has effectively become a sexual exploitation generator.

I have argued extensively with people on lemmy about why having AI porn generated of you without your consent is deeply traumatizing and a violation of your rights and privacy. Actual entire threads of people telling me that AI deep fake porn was perfectly fine and that we’re being too sensitive to not want our male peers and random strangers making AI deep fake porn of us. Wonder where those people are now.

I LOVE how we’re giving this CHILD PORN CREATION TOOL BILLIONS of US Tax Payer Dollars while ALSO Spending US Tax Payer Dollars on PROTECTING JEFFREY EPSTEIN and ALSO Spending US Tax Payer Dollars on ARMED MEN KIDNAPPING CHILDREN TO PLACES WERE NOT ALLOWED TO SEE!

Limited liability companies are “limited” in the sense that there are limitations on the responsibilities of the members of the corporation. The CEO can’t be held personally liable for the actions of the company, for example; their underlings could have been responsible and kept the leader in the dark.

However, there’s this interesting legal standard wherein it is possible to “pierce the corporate veil” and hold corporate leadership personally liable for illegal actions their company took, if you can show that by all reasonable standards they must or should have known about the illegal activity.

Anyway Elon has been elbow-deep in the inner workings of Xitter for years now, by his own admission, right? Really getting in there to tinker and build new stuff, like Grok and its image generation tools. Seems like he knows an awful lot about how that works. An awful lot.
