In response to the rise of nonconsensual sexual deepfakes on X, the platform has restricted the Grok account’s ability to edit images of real people, including censoring requests for revealing attire. However, tests showed that generating such images remains possible, prompting Elon Musk to attribute issues to user requests and hacking. X is implementing additional measures, including geoblocking image generation in jurisdictions where it’s illegal, as the UK enforces a law against nonconsensual intimate deepfakes. Prime Minister Keir Starmer has welcomed these actions but insists on compliance with UK law amid ongoing investigations by Ofcom.
