The United Kingdom’s online safety regulator, Ofcom, has launched an investigation into X over concerns that its AI tool Grok has been used to create and share explicit images of individuals, including children. If violations of U.K. law are found, potential penalties could include sanctions and advertising bans. This investigation follows similar actions by governments in Indonesia and Malaysia, as well as reports from Australia and the European Commission regarding exploitative content generated by Grok. While X has made Grok a premium feature, critics argue this allows users to pay for the creation of harmful images, raising significant ethical and legal concerns.
