Users on Elon Musk’s X came across an interesting new option tucked deep into the Settings tab on the social media platform this week.
“Allow your posts as well as your interactions, inputs, and results with Grok to be used for training and fine-tuning,” reads the settings option on X, formerly known as Twitter. The option refers to X’s AI chatbot Grok, which the company continues to integrate throughout the platform.
The fine print under the Settings option text goes on to say that the data is used to “continuously improve your experience” on X, but that the user’s data will also be shared with Musk’s AI company, xAI, which powers Grok.
It’s good that X informs users of how it uses their data. It’s also positive that X provides users with a choice on whether they want to share their data with xAI and X for AI training.
