October 13th xA A chat robot developed Grok THE CAPABILITY TO ANALYSE INTERNET VIDEOS WILL SOON BE AVAILABLE TO DETECT THE TRACES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE GENERATION (AI SIGNATURES) AND TO TRACE THE SOURCES OF THOSE VIDEOS THROUGH FURTHER RESEARCH. THIS STATEMENT COMES AT A TIME OF GROWING CONCERN ABOUT THE USE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE TO GENERATE CONTENT TO IMPERSONATE OR PUBLISH DEFAMATORY INFORMATION。
1AI notes that a user of X platform (formerly Twitter) expressed such concerns in a post on October 9th: “Anyone who hates you in the next year or two — probably sooner — can generate false videos of you making or saying bad deeds, which are almost indistinguishable from real videos, so that you have no way of proving it. No measures have been taken to prevent this.”
In response, Mask responded that Grok was about to introduce a new feature. He wrote: “@gok will be able to analyse artificial intelligence features in the bit stream and further search the Internet to assess its sources.”
Grok AI chat robots then provide more details about how this function may operate. According to them, the system might have the ability to identify minor AI traces in the video bit stream, such as imperceptible compression anomalies or inconsistent patterns of generation that are difficult to detect in humans. In addition, the chat robot may verify the authenticity of the video by cross-matching metadata, source tracks and web footprints。
Since the launch of Grok AI in 2023, Mask has been relying on this chat robot for a place in the OpenAI and Google-led A.I. competition. Earlier this year, Mask also merged XAI with Social Media Platform X to strengthen the synergy between the two companies and to make Grok a central component of the social networking site。
Currently, the X platform users have access to the Grok chat robot to verify the fact of postings on the platform. Mask also plans to completely replace X's existing content referral algorithm with Grok, thus providing a more personalized flow of information to users。
Besides, Grok is also Mask's Wikipedia Alternative - He called it "Grokipedia" -- the core tool。
Earlier this year, Mask also launched a new version of the Grok video generator for free and paid users, further expanding the functional coverage of its AI products。
