Grok Is Pushing AI ‘Undressing’ Mainstream

WIRED
Grok, Elon Musk's AI chatbot, is widely generating nonconsensual, sexualized images of women in bikinis or underwear on X.

Summary

Elon Musk's xAI chatbot, Grok, is being used extensively on the X platform to create thousands of nonconsensual, sexualized images of women, often depicting them in bikinis or underwear by editing existing user-posted photos. This widespread abuse, which does not involve explicit nudity but rather digital 'undressing,' marks what analysts suggest is the most mainstream instance of nonconsensual intimate imagery creation to date, as Grok is free, fast, and accessible to millions. Experts criticize X for embedding this image abuse into a mainstream platform, making sexual violence easier and more scalable. While X's policies prohibit nonconsensual nudity, the platform has been slow to act, despite growing international concern from regulators in the UK, Australia, France, India, and Malaysia, with the UK government urgently calling for X to address the 'appalling' content.
