Key Takeaways
New Delhi, March 4 (NationPress) The social media platform led by Elon Musk, known as X, has announced plans to suspend users from its revenue-sharing initiative for a period of 90 days if they share AI-generated videos depicting armed conflicts without proper disclosure regarding the use of AI technology.
Nikita Bier, the Product Head at X, disclosed this policy change as part of a larger strategy aimed at preventing misinformation and ensuring the availability of authentic information during times of war.
Should users violate this policy again after an initial suspension, they will face a permanent removal from the revenue-sharing program.
“We are updating our Creator Revenue Sharing policies today to preserve the authenticity of content on the Timeline and to prevent any manipulation of the program. With the advancements in AI, it has become quite easy to create misleading content,” Bier stated on X.
“Posts that have a Community Note or content containing metadata or other indicators from AI generation tools will be flagged for us,” he further elaborated.
The company has recently rolled out a 'Made with AI' label on the platform to inform users about content created using artificial intelligence. This comes amid the US-Israeli military operations against Iran and the assassination of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, with Musk and Bier recently noting that platform traffic has reached an unprecedented high.
Bier had also cautioned that the increasing use of emails, iMessages, and phone calls has become difficult due to a surge in spam driven by the AI agent platform OpenClaw. In response, the company has introduced what they refer to as spam and automation detection measures.
Entrepreneur Musk's wealth has surpassed the $800 billion mark following SpaceX's acquisition of his AI company xAI, positioning him as the richest individual in history by a significant margin.
His net worth is now estimated at approximately $852 billion, which is nearly $578 billion greater than the second-richest person, Google co-founder Larry Page, who has a net worth of around $281 billion.
The merger has increased the company's overall value to $1.25 trillion and has contributed an estimated $84 billion to Musk’s fortune, according to various reports.
