New: X has now for two days blocked all searches for Taylor Swift, one of the world's biggest superstars, during a very newsy weekend for her, because it couldn't stop AI-generated sex images of her and had no other ideas. A blunt and desperate measure to accomplish a basic content-moderation task - made tougher since X, under Elon Musk's leadership, fired 80% of its workers and most of its "trust and safety" team https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2024/01/29/taylor-swift-ai-pictures/
@drewharwell How fortunate that only idiots still consider X-Twitter any kind of main source for breaking news anymore. As opposed to the comments thread for #ElonMusk's Incredibly Expensive Blog.
@drewharwell So maybe there should be AI generated sex images of musk on Twitter. Then maybe he'll change his views on moderation. Or stop searches on himself.
@drewharwell for every burnout hippie that says taking psychoactive drugs makes you more empathetic, I will refer to this hershey stain of a human being.
@drewharwell He is having fun because you are still engaging on his platform and thus have not understood what the new rules are. Twitter / X as a public good no longer exists. Only the deceptive appearance.
And that's hilarious - from his point of view. 🤷🏻♂️
