> [@Tessa\_Springfield](#): > > wut are you even on about? I’m talking about twitter, which is currently in the news for having it’s AI Grok create sexualized images of pictures users post. (for example, you post a picture of you teaching your daughter to drive a bike, and some one else can tell the Grock-AI to change the picture, showing you teaching your daughter to drive a bike while pointing a gun at her, or switching her clothes with transparent cling-film. no, i’m not exagerating or joking.) ---

If you own a International brand, would you want to be associated with a service that is blocked in several coutries and being investigated in others for sexualized images of children?

Yeah, that’s pretty much their point. Eve is going to die because CCP made the fatal mistake of putting the word Facebook on their product. Even though Evony, a mobile game that advertises on Facebook all the time, makes around $350 million a year.
