Authorities in the UK and the European Union are calling for answers from X and xAI after reports that the artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot Grok has been used to generate sexually explicit images, including images that appear to depict minors.
Ofcom, the UK’s communications regulator, stated in a Jan. 5 social media post that it was aware of “serious concerns raised about a feature on Grok on X that produces undressed images of people and sexualised images of children.”
