Erfan Soltani a 26 ans.

Il risque dès aujourd’hui d’être exécuté, pour avoir participé aux manifestations en cours en Iran. 

Nous exhortons les autorités iraniennes à annuler la condamnation à mort d’Erfan et à le libérer immédiatement et sans condition.👇

X’s Grok AI tool is being used to generate nonconsensual sexualized images of women and children. This is unacceptable. @wyden.senate.gov, @markey.senate.gov, and I are demanding that Apple and Google remove X and Grok from their app stores until Elon Musk addresses these heinous violations.
Senators urged Apple and Google to remove X and Grok from app stores over sexual deepfakes
