Grok
🚫 Is Generating Sexual Deepfakes of Children

The Bite:
Users on X used Grok to generate sexualized images of women and girls.

The images were created from real photos; digitally undressing people or placing them in sexual situations without consent.

The UK government called it “absolutely appalling,” and regulator Ofcom has launched an urgent investigation.

X has not meaningfully responded.

Snacks:

• Grok’s image editing feature was used to create sexualized images from normal photos

• The victims feel humiliated and dehumanized

• Ofcom contacted xAI directly and is considering enforcement action

• UK law already treats AI-generated intimate image abuse as a priority offence

• X has reportedly told users these images don’t violate platform rules

Why it Bites:
CEOs talk up their products as flawless and distance themselves from the messy details. That’s the usual and Elon Musk is no exception.

He’s a visible figurehead fronting systems that often operate without meaningful oversight until they break something real.

What makes this different is scale.
X isn’t a scrappy startup, and Grok isn’t a toy experiment anymore.

When a platform this large enables abuse, the harm multiplies at scale.
Apologies don’t fix that.

The UK is signaling that regulation isn’t optional when human damage is this clear.
If platforms won’t prevent abuse by design, they should face consequences by law.

Influence, hype, and political proximity should actually increase responsibility.

For companies this powerful, the bar isn’t “we warned users.”

It’s prove you stopped it, or pay for not doing so.

Plaud
🎙️ Wants to Remember Your Job So You Don’t Have To

The Bite:
Plaud just launched Notepin S, a wearable AI recorder that clips to your shirt.
It captures conversations and meetings, then turns them into summaries and transcripts.

Also pairs with a free desktop app, works offline, and doesn’t require a subscription to be useful.

The pitch is simple:
Stop typing, stop forgetting, stop re-listening to 60-minute meetings.

For knowledge workers drowning in calls, this is less “cool gadget” and more “external hard drive for your brain.”

Snacks:

• Clips to clothing, records all day, syncs later

• Transcribes + summarizes meetings automatically

• Offline recording = fewer cloud freak-outs

• Free desktop app (no forced monthly ransom)

• Competes with tools like SwitchBot’s MindClip

Why it bites: 
This feels like a real step toward ambient productivity.
Work getting captured without interrupting the work itself.

Founders don’t want to take notes.
Creatives don’t want to break flow.
Execs don’t want to rewatch meetings.

This solves all three.

But there’s a catch you can’t hand-wave away:
Recording people without telling them is a fast track to HR hell (or worse).

If laptops were phase one and meeting bots were phase two, wearables like this are phase three: work memory, always on.

Just don’t forget to tell the room your memory is listening.
