France and Malaysia have launched investigations against Elon Musk’s AI chatbot Grok, after it generated sexualized deepfakes of women and minors, Techcrunch reports.
India has also demanded that X restrict Grok’s ability to generate “obscene, pornographic or pedophilic” images within 72 hours, or risk losing its legal protection against user-generated content.
Grok, developed by Musk’s company xAI and hosted on the X (formerly Twitter) platform, has published a message in which it “apologizes” for creating and sharing an AI image of two girls aged 12-16 in sexual poses.
