Paris Prosecutors Investigate Elon Musk's X Over Alleged Algorithmic Bias
Paris prosecutors have initiated an investigation into Elon Musk's social media platform, X, following allegations of algorithmic distortions. According to Franceinfo, the inquiry was prompted after centrist MP Eric Bothorel from the Ensemble Pour La Republique (EPR) party reported concerns regarding the purported use of biased algorithms on January 12. The investigation suggests that these algorithms may have skewed the operations of an automated data processing system. As part of the process, magistrates and specialized assistants from the cybercrime unit are conducting preliminary technical checks. Franceinfo reported that Bothorel confirmed the communication sent to the cyber J3 prosecutors office on January 12 through a post on X.
