SpaceX AI policy leader grilled by NYC Council on Grok safety, sexualized images
SpaceX head of global government affairs for AI Gabriela Castillo Madrid faced critical questions from the New York City Council on Friday.
What the coverage shows
Both outlets center the same New York City Council AI safety hearing involving SpaceX, but CNBC frames it as a scheduled testimony by SpaceX’s head of global government affairs for AI, Gabriela Castillo Madrid. Fox News uses a more confrontational angle, with its headline saying SpaceX will face a “grilling” and the extract focusing on lawmakers preparing to question the company over AI safety concerns.
