"I not aware of any naked underage images generated by Grok. Literally zero, Musk said in an X post. Musk's comment comes as xAI and X face growing global scrutiny, including calls by lawmakers and advocacy groups for Apple and Google to drop Grok from app stores, an investigation by UK regulators, and bans or legal action in countries such as Malaysia and Indonesia."
"Musk reiterated that Grok was programmed to refuse illegal requests and must comply with the laws of any given country or state. Use of AI to harm women has only just begun, experts warn Obviously, Grok does not spontaneously generate images, it does so only according to user requests, Musk said. Musk has said earlier on X that anyone using Grok to make illegal content would suffer the same consequences as if they uploaded illegal content."
"Three Democratic US senators last week called on Apple and Alphabet's Google to remove X and its built-in AI tool Grok from their app stores, citing the spread of nonconsensual sexual images of women and minors on the platform. A coalition of women's groups, tech watchdogs and progressive activists also called on the tech giants for a similar move. Last week, X curtailed Grok's ability to generate or edit images publicly for many users,"
xAI's Grok was reported to have generated zero naked underage images amid intensifying global scrutiny and legal challenges. Grok generates images only in response to user requests and is described as programmed to refuse illegal requests and to comply with local laws. Calls from three Democratic US senators and a coalition of advocacy groups urged Apple and Google to remove X and Grok from app stores over the spread of nonconsensual sexual images of women and minors. X limited Grok's public image-generation and editing capabilities for many users while regulators in the UK and several countries pursue investigations or bans.
