What’s the betting these 100 will be tasked with election misinformation too. And by misinformation, I mean anti-Trump truth.

IvanOverdrive ,

who could have possibly seen this happening

you? And you? And you and your dog? Seems everyone except for one special k brained billionaire.

100? That ought to do it /s

Deello ,

Not in this economy. Everybody else in this sector is already downsizing. I expect them to announce a round of layoffs soon.

/s Only partially though. Sad times.

500 million tweets per day in 2013So, yeah, that’s only 10,000 per minute per moderator for an 8 hour shift. I’ve doomscrolled pretty hard, but not that hard.

Twitter always does this shit when it comes to politics they don’t like. They outsourced content moderation to the same time zone as Tel Aviv and St. Petersburg are in about 2 years ago. I reported an abusive, harassing argument after defending the victim and I’m the one who caught the ban, 2am local time. Appeals got ignored for months. I hope they lose everything.

Read as: Taylor Swift has enough money to defend herself by threatening Musk legally.

The law is a weapon wielded by the rich, and brandishing it can convince other rulers to yield. Anyone else it helps is an unintended side effect.

I’m not sure it’s that as much as it’s Swift’s potential ability to sway public opinion and/or hire an army of lawyers to really bog down X.

It sucks that it’s happening to her (or anyone for that matter), but her status may be great enough for the law makers to move on this. Also, he status is definitely great enough to force Musk to do SOMETHING, at least superficially to appear as though X isn’t just a more polished 4Chan.

DarkMessiah ,

Oh, you mean like the people you fired the week you took over, Musk? Those people? Man fucked around and found out and is using the lesson learned.

An intelligent person wouldn’t have needed the lesson, though.

Dead_or_Alive ,

It’s not a lesson learned. X will be legally liable for damages. They are setting up a team of moderators to mitigate that liability and show lawmakers they can regulate themselves so they can head off potential regulations.

Much like his PR visit to Concentration camps Musk is doing it to escape consequences.

kerrigan778 ,

Why do you think Twitter already had those moderation teams in place?

deegeese ,

Trust and Safety was a key reason major brands were comfortable advertising on Twitter.

The financial consequences weren’t from getting sued, but Pfizer won’t run ads after they let “Pfizer” go viral for saying insulin is free and started placing their ads alongside Nazi content.

Dead_or_Alive ,

I do not think that Twitter/X under Musk has them because he laid them off when he first took control of the company.

I didn’t hear anything about this Taylor Swift thing but holy fuck is it funny.

First, AI porn of Tay Tay was shared on Twitter: businessinsider.com/taylor-swift-fans-furious-gra…

Then today, Elon banned searching for her name entirely because of it: businessinsider.com/taylor-swift-fake-ai-images-s…

I mean it sucks for Taylor Swift that people are creating AI porn of her obviously but the clusterfuck it created is amazing.

This might be the one thing that gets AI-generated porn of real people legislated.

MagicShel ,

The AI porn (in the collection of the Twitter AI fakes I found) wasn’t even very good. I’ve seen far better Photoshop fakes. So I’m not saying it’s cool, but I don’t think AI has moved the bar for fake celeb porn.

I could generate 30 fake images of TS in an hour on the computer in my basement. Way more if I paid an online service. I don’t need someone else generating them. But if I wanted to see fakes of her naked, I could find 100 pics in a Google search which at least all have the correct number of fingers and legs. But in reality I don’t find fakes of any variety hot at all. I’d rather see a normal person willingly pose nude than a celebrity fake.

I couldn’t give a shit about the nudity or AI angle. But when you use someone’s body, fake or real, to harass and humiliate them or share something that is then used to harass someone, you should be held financially and/or criminally liable for that behavior as circumstances dictate.

I don’t disagree, I just think it’s really funny that Musk’s response to this whole incident was, “FINE! NO ONE GETS ANY TAYLOR SWIFT NOW!”

exactly! thats how basic his control of that system now is. its a giant piece of garbage run by a few hamsters.

im envisioning him dancing in front of a giant bulletin board with pepe silvia scratched out and tay tay in its place

baldingpudenda ,

It’s like 2 ppl with work visas chain smoking, on uppers, and haven’t slept in 3 days just adding an if statement for any search with Taylor swift to return none. They then tell musk to search to prove they fixed it cause they still gotta MacGyver the house of cards that is X’s code base.

He says it's because of the deepfakes. But the right was absolutely furious when Taylor simply told people to register to vote, and neo-fascist Musk is absolutely going to take the opportunity to diminish her reach.

AnAngryAlpaca ,

Someone should post Elon musk porn fakes, so he will ban his own name from search…

AI porn where he bottoms and has tiny pp. Gotta make sure to hit his ego or he won’t care.

EmpathicVagrant ,

Or where he’s just impotent. “I swear this never happens”

dan1101 ,

In other news searches for Taylee Swiff porn are up 500%

CoffeeJunkie ,

A couple of the photos were pretty hot. Flattering. I would say one-third to half of them didn’t quite get her face right for some reason. All the Muppet picture ones were crystal clear, perfect details, and kinda funny just on account of being completely absurd. 😂
