AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I used to work in the porn industry years and years ago as a developer (I made the websites) so I can assume how grok got this info.
in the US at least they have to keep information of all their talent that they use to produce content for a law called "2257". Essentially what would happen is if we were doing photo sets or videos before the content there would be a couple photos or short video of the talent holding their ID to the camera. We'd then take that stuff and put it into a DB and if need be file it with the US government to comply with 2257. Basically this just ensures that the talent is of legal age. For one company I worked for we literally had two ladies that spent every day all day filing this information and sending it off. Because of this they were also the ones that would approve if we could use the content or not.
So you can now safely guess how Grok was able to get access to this info. For whatever reason Grok, and X (probably via DOGE) has access to the 2257 database. Why it would need/want access to this? well...come on we know the reason.
Sorry but whenever I hear this wording, I always imagine the porn lobby had a meeting one day to decide on a better word for 'meat' and they ended up on 'talent'
I think this term is used across all industries, Dua Lipa is talent, same as Brad Pitt
I always used actor, singer, ...
Their way makes it seem like they're the only ones there with talent lol
