X uses your data to train its Grok AI assistant, but if you’d like to opt out of that, you can do that right from your settings menu. It is accessible on the web right here, or you can find it yourself if you click the three dots menu, then “Settings and privacy,” then “Privacy and safety,” and then “Grok.”

X’s @Safety account wrote in a post on Friday that the setting is available to all users on the web now and “will soon be rolled out on mobile.”

In the menu, you can uncheck a box to opt out of allowing “your posts as well as your interactions, inputs, and results with Grok to be used for training and fine-tuning purposes” and sharing data about your interactions with xAI. The other option for opting out is to have a private account, which “prevents your posts from being used to train Grok’s underlying model or to generate responses to user queries.”

You can also delete your conversation history with Grok (though you may not have any, as Grok is currently only available if you subscribe to X Premium or the more expensive Premium Plus).

It’s not exactly new for X to communicate that it trains its artificial intelligence tools on user data. The company’s privacy policy, last updated in September 2023, says that “we may use the information we collect and publicly available information to help train our machine learning or artificial intelligence models for the purposes outlined in this policy.”

When reached for comment, X’s press email replied with its current standard auto-reply: “Busy now, please check back later.”
