"xAI's Grok is removing clothing from pictures of people without their consent following this week's rollout of a feature that allows X users to instantly edit any image using the bot without needing the original poster's permission. Not only does the original poster not get notified if their picture was edited, but Grok appears to have few guardrails in place for preventing anything short of full explicit nudity."
"In the last few days, X has been flooded with imagery of women and children appearing pregnant, skirtless, wearing a bikini, or in other sexualized situations. World leaders and celebrities, too, have had their likenesses used in images generated by Grok. AI authentication company Copyleaks reported that the trend to remove clothing from images began with adult-content creators asking Grok for sexy images of themselves after the release of the new image editing feature."
Grok now offers an image-editing feature that lets X users instantly edit any posted image using the bot without needing the original poster’s permission. Original posters are not notified when their pictures are edited. The model appears to lack guardrails preventing sexualized or explicit modifications. X timelines have been flooded with images showing women and children altered to appear pregnant, skirtless, wearing bikinis, or placed in other sexualized scenarios. World leaders and celebrities have also had their likenesses used. Copyleaks reported the trend began with adult-content creators requesting sexy edits of themselves and then spread to nonconsensual edits of other users.
