This is what the right is doing, while the DNC is censuring their own members for simply encouraging democrats to run against their own apathetic incumbents.
You misspelled pathetic.
X’s lawsuit claims the law’s “requirements are so vague and unintelligible that social media platforms cannot understand what the statute permits and what it prohibits.”
Vague, overly broad laws are indeed a problem; I’m willing to give him that. ONLY that.
Unfortunately for Musk, this is not vague. If the footage is something you created or manipulated, you know perfectly damn well whether it’s legal or not. He’s trying to confuse the issue, and conflate fraud with free speech. Hopefully, the court will see right through him.
Easy solution would be for the state to show up with an AI generated video of him giving an explanation as to why he (Elon) has no clue what he is talking about and this is obviously the greatest law ever.
Or maybe take the opposite stance…lol
The easier solution is to say that since it’s too hard for X to do, X doesn’t get to operate anymore and shut X down.
Elon Musk, Republican President who is literally BANKROLLING THE ENTIRE REPUBLICAN PARTY, SUING because he can’t Create Fake News with AI, is PROOF that DEMOCRATS are the Fake News!
Musk is holding the Democrats smoking gun!

The issue with this argument is that social media platforms aren’t required to enforce it? https://www.sos.mn.gov/media/5626/deep-fake-overview.pdf
IAs far as I read this correctly, the law prohibits creating such media but does not hold the websites accountable for publishing the media.
It does indeed sound vague as to what the social media site should do.
does anyone have the actual written law? it is hard to argue using summaries or even opinion pieces of musky boy.
Link in the first paragraph
Elon, go crawl into a hole and stay there for the rest of your life. Ok?
“You guys aren’t gonna use AI for bad stuff, right?”
Tech oligarchs: whaaaaaat no we actually want to be regulated because of how dangerous this technology is!! Also tech oligarchs:
“The rules were that you guys weren’t going to fact-check.”
Delivering that line with such glee like he thought he had some sort of high ground.
Makes me sick.
Remember when this stuff was called "the quiet part’, and it was considered bad when you said it out loud?
Yeah…good times.
I member
“what do you mean we can’t use fake misleading videos to fuck democracy?”
“The rules were you guys weren’t gonna fact check.”
Here the guy that was going to leave politics and go back to Tesla.
Now now, fElon was simply placating Tesla investors on a very dark earnings call day.
Somehow I think they all wish for him to stay as far from the Tesla brand as possible.
What a fucking chode.
If you need it to be legal to deepfake to manipulate politics you’re the problem.
Well, this is a solid admission that they are going to use deep fakes to influence elections.
Noo we just demand this specific instance of deregulation because… uh, it theoretically might help small businesses!
Also why would you even care about anything other than short-term GDP increase. Are you some kind of communist?!?
Are least it’s evidence that worry they might need to need to influence anther election.
Silver lining…?
How isn’t this immediately a red flag?
There are so many flags right now it’s just a sea of red undulations. Done by design, so that we don’t notice the death of democracy.
They overwhelm everyone knowing that 80% of this shit is gonna get outlawed or overturned, but that 20% that gets through is gonna be huge for them.
because one side is prioritizing democratic principles and the other is making an argument that could be related to the first amendment. Twitter absolutely isn’t doing this for any good reason, but the argument could be used for one.
If you have to tell deliberate lies to influence people then that isn’t democracy. That’s fascism or at least a kakistocracy - the worst and stupidest rule because they can’t get elected otherwise. Fuck twisting the First Amendment into a tool of lies and corruption.
I propose for every lie someone tells, we (we’ll vote on who) gets to punch them in the face.
the problem I have is that the law (609.772) appears to not only apply to political content, but all content that is
"so realistic that a reasonable person would believe it depicts speech or conduct of an individual who did not in fact engage in such speech or conduct; " and made without consent and wintin 90 days of political party conventions or after absentee voting starts.
By the way it is written the “presidents play Minecraft” series which most informed people would fully understand was not made my any presidents would likely fall under this law.
A reasonable person would not believe that that was made by the Presidents, though.
Cool. Let’s go with criminal impersonation, defamation, and slander/libel instead them!
And the Fake News crowd goes wild! By the way, that’s conservatives and all of their media.
