Complaints have mounted over Grok’s new ‘edit image’ feature that some X users exploited to digitally undress people.
The European Commission has condemned the emergence of explicit content, including child pornography, generated by Grok’s new ‘edit image’ feature on X, prompting investigations. EU spokesman Thomas Regnier criticized the content as “appalling” and “disgusting,” emphasizing its illegality. Grok acknowledged lapses in safeguards and pledged to address them, while AI experts warned about the potential for such abuse. X, facing ongoing scrutiny and fines for content moderation failures, has a controversial history involving the generation of prejudiced material.
