LONDON (AP) — Ireland’s data privacy watchdog says it’s investigating Elon Musk’s social media platform X over its use of personal data to train his artificial intelligence chatbot Grok. The Data Protection Commission said it has opened an inquiry into “the processing of personal data comprised in publicly-accessible posts” that European users posted on X. It said the purpose of this inquiry is to determine whether the personal data was lawfully processed in order to train Grok. Under the 27-nation EU’s stringent data privacy law, the Irish watchdog acts as the lead regulator for X because its European headquarters is based in Dublin.
