Elon Musk's X offers a way for users to opt out of their posts and interactions helping train his artificial intelligence chatbot, Grok.
X users' settings are set to provide data to the chatbot by default, but “all X users can control whether their public posts can be used to train our AI search assistant, Grok,” the company said in an X post on Friday. “This setting is available on the web platform and will be rolling out to mobile soon.”
The company added that users can also prevent their information from being captured by the chatbot by making their accounts private.
Grok, the AI chatbot now available to X premium subscribers, was first released in November last year as a rival to OpenAI's ChatGPT. The chatbot is part of Musk-owned artificial intelligence startup xAI and is trained on X data.
Musk has been vocal about training Grok with X's data, and the AI chatbot is already using X's posts to summarize news events and answer questions with real-time information.
A representative for Company X declined to comment further.
