Yeah, so I think one of the big struggles for people whose images are being used in this way is how to respond and what to do about it.

You know, people are obviously reaching out to X, trying to get these things removed.

And that process is taking sometimes a long time.

Sometimes it's not happening at all.

And I think part of that is, as we've talked about a lot, I think on the show in particular, that X has gotten rid of a lot of their content moderation folks, and they don't have large teams of people who are responding to this.

I've been speaking with some people who are working with children who have been deepfaked on X recently, and they are getting those images taken down, but it's taking sometimes 36, 72 hours sometimes.

And these images are kind of sitting up and being commented on and exploited for quite some time.

So, you know, it's a bit of a scary moment, I think, for people trying to figure out how to respond once they are put in this situation by Grok.

Why this is happening really ranges, and I've seen this happening to all kinds of different women, you know, women who are just sort of regular ex-users.

Obviously, women with public platforms are being targeted by this, so political figures, Twitch streamers.

you know, celebrities, actresses, they are all being kind of roped into this.

And I think the motivations of the people who are asking for these images, you know, obviously they're sexual, but it kind of runs the gamut from, you know, wanting to create pornographic images of someone to, I think, wanting to just humiliate women in particular and sort of bully them, you know, tagging them in these images and really kind of trying to provoke a reaction from the women that they're making deep fakes of.

Yeah.

So, you know, I mentioned I've been speaking to some folks who are working with children who've been deepfaked on Grok.

And so I want to be kind of, you know, vague about the specifics of it because I don't want to further bring harassment to these kids.

But, you know, there's a particular child who I'm thinking of who's been deepfaked several times.

She's a somewhat public figure.

And so that's where the original images are coming from, where people are asking for her clothing to be removed.

And it's been...

Pretty scary for her parents.
