The US is currently doing their damnedest to protect and enable predators! Right, there have been growing concerns around the world surrounding AI-generated sexual images of people - especially children. And front and center of that conversation has been Grok AI - especially after it began allowing users to edit images with text prompts in late December.
Which, shocker, led to a flood of nonconsensual AI-generated photos of women in their underwear on X. As well as sexual images of children.

We even saw popular creators like Twitch Streamer Sweet Anita speak out about it - telling Dexerto, “As an onlooker and a target of the Grok bikini trend, I can’t help but feel as though our bodies are being used to bolster usage statistics just to impress investors, all while we pay the price These deepfakes of unclothed women and children are still getting posted every single second. I don’t know how the people running X could, in good conscience, choose to profit from that. At this point, it looks so intentional to me. I’m disgusted. It makes me sick that Twitter has been turned into such a dark place.“

In response to all the backlash, xAI limited image generation and editing to paying subscribers and promised to take action against any images like this generated of children. Saying they respond to any material like that by removing it, permanently suspending accounts, and working with local governments and law enforcement.

But for many - including Sweet Anita and international leaders - that’s not anywhere near good enough. In fact, this whole thing has led to Grok access being blocked in Indonesia and Malaysia - with Indonesia’s minister of communications and digital affairs saying in a statement, “The government views the practice of non-consensual sexual deepfakes as a serious violation of human rights, dignity and the security of citizens in the digital space.”

Leaders in the UK have also taken serious issue - with Britain’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s spokesperson saying that just limiting image generation to subscribers is, quote, “not a solution” and is “insulting” to victims of sexual violence. And now the UK’s communications watchdog OFCOM has launched an investigation into X itself.
