EU looking into Elon Musk's X after Grok produces deepfake sex images

Probe follows outcry over use of creepy image generation tool

The European Commission has launched an investigation into X amid concerns that its GenAI model Grok offered users the ability to generate sexually explicit imagery, including sexualized images of children.

The executive branch of the EU said it begun the new probe under the Digital Services Act (DSA), introduced to regulate illegal content, disinformation, and other systemic risks on online platforms, and assess whether the company properly assessed and mitigated risks associated with the deployment of Grok's functionalities into X in the EU.

So simple - if you knew where! I just set Federation discovery service Status: Active and get an SSO button on mysite/login/ screen. And it takes me a long way along the authentication in the federation. Right now halted at "You have logged in successfully but we could not find your 'uid' attribute to associate you to an account in Moodle" which I am going to look at with the provider.

Thank you so much!

Also the reason for choosing GoDaddy. From what I gather from the forums they invest their money on advertising consequently neglecting the quality. Full transparency: I hold a grudge against GD: 14 years and running: Go Daddy! (Where to?)

You're welcome!

Still, you haven't provided a single information I requested in my previous post. I conclude that you only want to talk to us about the problems you are having and not interested in solving them together. Oh yeah, there are "they" for that!
 
OK with me. I just needed to know.
