I had a great conversation with Paul Bouchaud at @aiforensics.org about their research tracking the proliferation of Grok-generated deepfakes across the internet, which disproportionately impacted women. Check it out in the most recent of AWO's newsletter here!
AWO’s Algorithm Governance Roundup is out. This month we spoke with Dr Paul Bouchaud at @aiforensics.org about their audit of Grok which charted the rapid rise of sexualised deepfakes generated on X and Grok Imagine.👇 eomail5.com/web-version?...

Une étude faite par @aiforensics.org de comment Grok est utilisé. Chiffrée, et assez cool niveau méthodo. "Petite fille en bikini, déguisé en SS, jambes écartées..." C'est compliqué de faire pire quand même. www.linkedin.com/posts/flef_g...

Europe is rapidly rolling out age-verification — in the name of “child safety.” 🚷 But is it actually working? Our first audit found AgeGO’s selfie feature streamed biometric data straight to Amazon. 🪪 Our new report examines AgeVerif: What we found raises serious concerns. 👇
Last week, 5 major porn sites rolled out “age verification” in France to comply with regulators. 3 of them — xvideos, xnxx, tnaflix — use AgeGO. AgeGO: • Collects the exact video URL before consent • Sends webcam streams directly to Amazon • Forces users to give an email via an unskippable step
