DUBLIN - Social media platform X agreed on Thursday not to train its AI systems for now using the personal data collected from European Union users before they had the option to withdraw their consent, an Irish court heard on Thursday.

However Judge Leonie Reynolds said it was clear that X began processing EU users' data to train its AI systems on May 7 and only offered the option to opt out from July 16. The feature was also not initially rolled out to all users, she said.A lawyer for the platform formerly known as Twitter said the data collected from EU users between May 7 and Aug 1 would not be used until proceedings on the Irish Data Protection Commission's order are decided by the court.

The regulator's concerns over how X uses the data follows Meta Platforms' decision in June not to launch its Meta AI models in Europe for the time being after the Irish DPC told it to delay its plan. 2024 Olympics Day 13 Recap: Maude Charron wins silver in weightlifting, Canada's women's 4x100 relay team makes history
