LONDON
Elon Musk’s AI chatbot, Grok, is facing a mounting international backlash after users reported it was generating non-consensual, sexualized images of women and children.
The outcry has triggered official condemnations and calls for investigations across multiple continents.
On Tuesday, Britain’s top technology official demanded urgent action from Musk’s platform X, while a Polish lawmaker cited the case as grounds for new digital safety laws.
The European Commission has denounced the tool, with officials in France, India, Malaysia, and Brazil also condemning it and pushing for regulatory scrutiny.
The global alarm highlights the dangerous proliferation of AI “nudification” tools capable of creating sexually explicit deepfakes, raising urgent questions about the safeguards—or lack thereof—in powerful new generative AI platforms.
