Elon Musk’s X is changing its privacy policy to allow third parties to train AI on your posts
On Wednesday, social network X (formerly Twitter) updated its Privacy Policy to indicate that it would allow third-party "collaborators" to train their AI
Currently, the “Privacy and safety” section in settings lets users turn on or off data-sharing with xAI’s Grok and with other “business partners,” but the latter is described as those companies that X may work with to “run and improve its products,” not other AI providers. In addition, the company removed a paragraph that said it keeps user “profile information and content for the duration of your account,” and that it keeps other “personally identifiable data we collect when you use our products and services for a maximum of 18 months.” This could potentially cover the data’s ingestion by AI providers, as X adds, “search engines and other third parties may retain copies of your posts longer, based upon their own privacy policies, even after they are deleted or expire on X.”
