A former Trump administration official has warned the UK⁤ against following through with ‍a potential ban on X, formerly known as Twitter, in the⁢ style of Russia.

The warning ‍comes after Elon Musk’s AI ⁢chatbot, grok, was found to be providing responses that were critical of the UK government.

Speaking to The Telegraph, kash Patel, who served as Deputy Assistant to President Trump, said​ that a ban on X would be‌ “absolutely⁢ insane” and would set a “dangerous precedent”.

A key Trump administration official has sent‍ the UK a firm warning following speculation Elon Musk’s X platform may face a ban⁣ after a scandal around AI-generated images.

Sarah Rogers,under-secretary ‌for public diplomacy at the US State Department, issued a series of messages criticising the UK on⁤ the rumoured ban.

Rogers said the​ UK was “contemplating a Russia-style X ban to protect [women] from bikini images” ⁢and took‍ a swipe at recent discourse in Britain around cousin marriage and its “connection to honor killing”.

It follows Elon Musk himself taking yet another jab at the Labor government as he posted on X: “Why is the UK government so fascist?”.

The tech tycoon accused the government of wanting “any ⁤excuse for censorship”.
