“Elon Musk on Monday did not appear at a summons for questioning in a French probe into X and its AI chatbot, Grok, over alleged abuse of algorithms and fraudulent data extraction, the Paris prosecutor's office said.
…
While attendance at Monday's hearing was mandatory, the authorities at this stage could not compel Musk, the world's richest person, to appear.
…
Musk had been summoned for a ‘voluntary interview’ — requested when authorities want to question someone without arresting that person. Prosecutors have no authority to use force to compel the person to appear, but if the person fails to respond to the summons, they may decide to place them in police custody” [1].
From what I can tell, today’s story is about this “voluntary interview” being rescheduled while the Paris prosecutor potentially builds a case for issuing an arrest warrant.
