> None of the other new AI platforms seem to be having this problem
The very first AI code generators had this issue that user could make illegal content by making specific requests. A lot of people, me including, saw this as a problem, and there were a few copyright lawsuits arguing this. The courts however did not seem to be very sympathetic to this argument, putting the blame on the user rather than the platform.
Here is hoping that Grok forces regulations to decide on this subject once and for all.
