X’s Grok AI Training with User Data: How to Disable and Erase Conversation History

X, the former name for Twitter, has introduced a feature that lets the business use user posts to train its Grok AI automatically. By default, X activated the new configuration. The good news is that you can disable it and remove all of your AI conversation history.

According to the platform’s settings page, X can “utilize your X posts as well as your user interactions, inputs, and results with Grok for training and fine-tuning purposes” if enabled. X continues, saying, “This also means that our service provider xAI may also receive your interactions, inputs, and outcomes for these purposes.”

Disabling the settings isn’t possible through the X mobile app but on the social network’s desktop version.

How to disable X’s settings for data sharing:

• Go to the Settings page on your desktop using X.
• Click the tab labelled “Privacy and Safety.”
• Choose “Grok.”
• Take the box off of the checkbox.

By selecting the “Delete conversation history” button after turning off the setting, you can erase any past conversations you may have had with the AI.

“The most powerful AI training cluster in the world” is what xAI is using to train its Grok big language model, according to X owner Elon Musk earlier this week. By December [2024], according to Musk, the AI model will rank as “the most powerful AI in the world by every metric.” It is now evident that Musk and X intended to train their AI by utilizing user posts and tweets from the past in addition to the potent training cluster.

Not only has X used user data to train its AI, but Meta informed EU and UK users last month of a planned update that would enable it to train its AI using publicly accessible Facebook and Instagram content. Eventually, the business gave in to pressure from the government and shelved its intentions.
