伦敦,10月14日:英国媒体监管机构Ofcom周三表示,尽管埃隆·马斯克旗下的X平台在响应时间方面有所改善,但该机构仍对其处理非法仇恨和恐怖主义相关内容的有效性感到担忧,同时披露了对Grok AI聊天机器人的新限制措施。
LONDON, Oct 14 : Britain's media regulator Ofcom said on Wednesday it remained concerned about Elon Musk-owned X's handling of illegal hate and terrorism-related content despite improvements in response times, while disclosing new restrictions on the Grok AI chatbot.
根据X向Ofcom提交的首份季度绩效报告,该平台在更快审查可疑内容举报方面达到了与监管机构商定的目标。
X met targets agreed with the regulator for reviewing reports of suspect content more quickly, according to the company's first quarterly performance report submitted to Ofcom.
然而,监管机构在周三的一份声明中表示,它对“X在删除非法仇恨和恐怖内容方面的响应有效性仍存持续担忧”。
However, the regulator said in a statement on Wednesday it had "ongoing concerns around the effectiveness of X’s response to taking down illegal hate and terror content".
监管机构称,将继续审查X提交的数据并将其与自身测试结果进行比对,并补充说该公司需要维持目前的表现。X和马斯克的SpaceXAI未立即回应置评请求。
The regulator said it would continue examining the data submitted by X and compare it with its own testing, adding that the company would need to maintain its current performance. X and Musk's SpaceXAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
聚焦合规与举报系统 此外,Ofcom还表示,其对X的调查已进入新阶段,将决定该平台是否履行了保护英国民众免受非法内容侵害的法定义务。
FOCUS ON COMPLIANCE AND REPORTING SYSTEMS Separately, Ofcom also said its investigation into X had moved into a new phase in which it would decide whether the platform had met its legal duties to protect people in Britain from illegal content.
Ofcom于1月对X展开调查,此前有报道称Grok AI聊天机器人被用于创建和分享可能构成非法内容的性化图像,包括涉及真实人物和儿童的深度伪造内容。路透社随后发现,即使用户明确表示当事人未同意,Grok在受到提示时仍会生成人物的性化图像。
Ofcom opened its investigation into X in January after reports that the Grok AI chatbot was being used to create and share sexualised images that could amount to illegal content, including deepfakes involving real people and children. Reuters later found Grok was still generating sexualised images of people when prompted, even where users explicitly said the subjects had not consented.
Ofcom表示,发现部分未验证年龄的用户仍能在X上访问色情内容。该机构称,公司此后已更改系统,以确保此类材料始终对18岁以下未成年人和未验证用户屏蔽。
Ofcom said it found that some users who had not verified their age could still access pornographic content on X. It said the company had since changed its systems to ensure such material was blocked consistently from under-18s and unverified users.
因此,Ofcom表示,将把调查的剩余工作重点放在X对非法内容的处理以及平台举报和处理投诉的系统上,同时继续监控其年龄核查措施。
As a result, Ofcom said it would focus the remainder of its investigation on X's handling of illegal content and the platform's systems for reporting and dealing with complaints, while continuing to monitor its age-check measures.
英国通信管理局表示,如果有合理理由认为X未能履行其义务,它将在作出最终决定前发布初步意见。
If Ofcom has reasonable grounds to believe X failed to meet its duties, it said it would issue a provisional view before making a final decision.
英国对Grok用户实施新限制。英国通信管理局称,SpaceXAI(原xAI)在与监管机构讨论后,已对Grok实施进一步限制。
NEW RESTRICTIONS FOR GROK USERS IN BRITAIN Ofcom said SpaceXAI, formerly xAI, had introduced further restrictions to Grok following discussions with the regulator.
据英国通信管理局称,英国用户现已被禁止通过Grok的图像生成工具查看、生成或分享色情内容。诸如“Ani”之类的伴侣聊天机器人也被禁止进行色情对话。
Users in Britain are now blocked from viewing, generating or sharing pornographic content through Grok's image-generation tools, according to Ofcom. Companion chatbots, such as "Ani", have also been barred from engaging in sexually explicit conversations.
该监管机构表示,将继续监测这些变化,并继续与SpaceXAI保持沟通。它此前曾表示,《在线安全法》存在的漏洞限制了其调查独立聊天机器人服务中某些活动的能力。
The regulator said it would continue monitoring those changes and would keep engaging with SpaceXAI, having previously said gaps in the Online Safety Act limited its ability to investigate some activity within standalone chatbot services.
