070: Elon Musk’s Grok is Victimizing Women and Children feat. Kat Tenbarge and Ashley St. Clair

On this two-part episode, Mike and Jared explore how Grok, the AI chatbot built into Elon Musk's platform X, generates and distributes child sex abuse material and revenge porn. They're joined by Kat Tenbarge, an independent journalist who covers tech. Kat explains the history of "deepfakes" and how Musk's platform fits into a pattern of men manipulating tech to exploit women. After that, the guys speak with former MAGA influencer Ashley St. Clair, who has a child with Musk. Ashley recounts how she and others have been victimized by Grok's nonconsensual generation of sexually explicit images.
