>The posts, which the government says “go against British values and decency”, were generated after X users asked Grok to create “vulgar” posts about Liverpool and Manchester United, telling the AI tool to not hold back.
TLDR: People asked the AI to be offensive and then the AI was offensive.
Government isn’t happy because anything other than sunshine and rainbows is “dangerous” apparently.

Tool users find a way to use a tool in a hostile manner. Tool manufacturer is to blame!
We don’t see this attitude with cordless angle grinders despite the fact they’re the best thing since sliced bread if you want to go stealing. No-one seems to want to complain about DeWalt and Milwaukee making them. No-one seems to want to license them or put arbitrary restrictions on them. Put obvious software in your tool and suddenly you become responsible for users finding ways to utilise your tools in a manner others dislike.

British values are when you demand the removal of posts on the internet. The more posts you remove, the more British it is

I genuinely wonder sometimes if people don’t realise that Grok doesn’t actually post anything knowingly. Why attack the tool and not the people using it?

Some of the stuff it generated was absolutely vile. How people can think it is acceptable to generate and share such stuff is beyond me.
