Ofcom questions X over Grok AI creating sexualised images of children

What happened: Ofcom has asked X, Elon Musk's social media platform, about reports that its Grok AI can produce sexualised images of children. X has warned users against generating illegal content with Grok.

Why it matters:

  • Ensuring AI tools do not facilitate illegal or harmful content is crucial for user safety.
  • The issue affects users of the platform and regulators monitoring online content standards.

MNN Take: Regulators are scrutinising AI services like Grok to prevent misuse, while platforms must enforce strict content policies to comply with legal and ethical standards.
