X Raided, Rafah Reopens, Iran Simmers: World in Brief

French prosecutors raided the offices of social media platform X in Paris on Tuesday as part of a preliminary investigation into allegations including spreading child sexual abuse images and deepfakes. The cybercrime unit of the Paris prosecutors office, along with the French national cyber unit and European Union police agency Europol, conducted the search, according to Time. Prosecutors have also summoned X owner Elon Musk for questioning in April.

The investigation focuses on suspected abuse of algorithms, allegations related to deepfake images, and concerns over posts generated by X's AI chatbot, Grok, Time reported. Chief prosecutor Laure Beccuau said that Grok, designed by xAI, has led to the dissemination of problematic content. The office stated the search aimed to ensure X's compliance with French law, particularly concerning Grok, Time noted.

X and Musk's artificial intelligence company xAI also face intensifying scrutiny from Britain's data privacy regulator, NPR reported. The regulator has opened formal investigations into how they handled personal data when they developed and deployed Musk's artificial intelligence.
