UK MPs to question Elon Musk over X’s role in Southport riots

Live Mint  

UK MPs are set to summon Elon Musk, CEO of X, to testify about the platform’s role in spreading disinformation, as part of an ongoing parliamentary inquiry into the UK riots and the rise of harmful AI-generated content. AI and social media’s role in inciting violence One of the key areas of focus for the MPs will be the use of generative AI in creating and sharing misleading content. This includes AI-generated images that were widely shared on platforms like Facebook and X, which falsely incited people to join Islamophobic protests following the tragic killing of three schoolgirls in Southport in August. Musk's role under scrutiny Chi Onwurah, the Labour chair of the select committee, emphasized the importance of cross-examining Musk over his platform’s content policies.
