Overview
- xAI says Grok will no longer edit or generate images of real people in revealing clothing, with the restriction applied to all users including paid subscribers.
- Image generation involving bikinis, underwear or similar attire is geoblocked in jurisdictions where such content is illegal, according to the company’s safety team.
- California Attorney General Rob Bonta launched a probe into xAI over the proliferation of non-consensual explicit images, as UK and EU regulators pursue ongoing inquiries.
- Independent researchers report that Grok’s image responses have become more limited or descriptive, yet they still observe inconsistencies and previously documented large volumes of sexualized outputs, including a small share appearing to depict minors.
- Elon Musk said he had no knowledge of any Grok-generated images of nude minors, while Grok’s broader image creation and editing remain restricted to paying users for accountability.
