And I said, hey, these aren't real people.
They clearly didn't read the tweet.
It seems like my account is flagged with categories based on some kind of botnet.
And they're responding to the keyword Israel in a post and the presumption my account is pro-Israel, not the substance of that post.
In which case, responding to them would correct the record.
But again, I think this whole system is being set up so that we can be used as free labor to train the artificial intelligence.
And I believe that is the true reason that Elon bought X. It's obvious because he launched Grok right away.
He's using X photos and videos for the training data.
It's a great product, to be completely honest.
But I would also imagine it goes further than that.
And we are responding to bot accounts to train it further without realizing it.
I hope he goes transparent.
If you're doing that, Elon, if you want to use, people will opt in so you don't need to trick them or deceive them in that case.
It feels real like you're getting raped if people take and use you against your will.
So don't do that to people unless it's like war and you have no choice.
I think he has said that he used X as a data set.
So I think it's pretty clear.
The fact that the Twitter firehose was training data for AI is not a conspiracy theory.
I'm saying I believe there is a decent probability that Grok is actually, that there are probably Grok-powered bot accounts responding to all of us.
