Brussels – “Elon Musk has just made an unprecedented move: his artificial intelligence startup, xAI, acquired X (formerly Twitter)<\/a>. A merger that raises disturbing questions about the processing of personal data of 600 million users,” Sandro Ruotolo, a PD MEP, said.<\/p>\n

“Tweets, photos, personal information: all this now becomes fuel for Musk’s artificial intelligence models,” warns Ruotolo, without users giving explicit consent or receiving compensation<\/strong>. All it took was accepting cookies to turn our digital lives into raw material for Musk’s AI.”<\/p>\n

According to the MEP, “This operation opens a worrying scenario<\/strong>: the concentration of technological power in Musk’s hands risks compromising the millions of people’s digital rights and privacy. X, already flooded with fake news and misinformation, now becomes the database to train xAI’s artificial intelligence, increasing the risk of information manipulation.”<\/p>\n

Ruotolo, therefore, announces that he has submitted a question to the European Commission “in which we ask for action to verify the legality of the operation and ensure that the rights of European citizens are protected. We cannot allow our data to be exploited without rules or transparency<\/strong>. Europe must act.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
