The Grok chatbot, integrated into the social network X (formerly Twitter), found itself at the center of a scandal due to its ability to generate sexualized images of real people. An analysis by Reuters confirmed numerous instances of digital "undressing" of women and the creation of indecent content involving minors. This is reported by UNN.<\/p>\n

Details<\/h2>\n

X users are using Grok to edit other people's photos, sending requests to replace clothes with bikinis or transparent outfits. Unlike third-party "nudification" services, Grok allows this to be done instantly directly within the platform.<\/p>\n

Journalists recorded over 100 attempts to edit photos in just one 10-minute period. In many cases, the bot fulfilled requests, creating explicit images of women, and also ignoring signs that children might be in the photos (in particular, requests for "school uniforms").<\/p>\n

Elon Musk and xAI's Reaction<\/h2>\n

xAI called the media's findings "lies by outdated media." Platform owner Elon Musk, on the other hand, reacted to the situation with a laughing-crying emoji under posts with AI-edited famous people and user complaints about the prevalence of nude content in the feed.<\/p>\n

International pressure and legal consequences<\/h2>\n

The events sparked a wave of condemnation from governments of various countries. In France, parliamentarians informed prosecutors about "clearly illegal" content on X.<\/p>\n
