To opt out of data-sharing for Grok AI on the X platform, users can follow these steps:
1. Access Settings: Open the X platform on the web and navigate to the settings page. This option is currently available on the web and will be rolled out on mobile devices soon[2][5].
2. Privacy and Safety: Click on "Privacy and safety" from the settings menu[2][5].
3. Grok Settings: Scroll down and select "Grok" or "Data sharing and personalization" depending on the layout[1][3][4].
4. Opt Out: Uncheck the box that says "Allow your posts as well as your interactions, inputs, and results with Grok to be used for training and fine-tuning"[3][5].
Additionally, users can enhance their privacy by making their account private, which limits the visibility of their posts and prevents them from being used by Grok AI for training purposes[4]. Users can also delete their conversation history, which will be removed from the system within 30 days unless retained for security or legal reasons[4].
