Elon Musk's Grok AI appears to have made child sexual imagery, says charity
Elon Musk's Grok AI appears to have made child sexual imagery, says charity The Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) charity says its analysts have discovered criminal imagery of girls aged between 11 and 13 which appears to have been created using Grok. The AI tool is owned by Elon Musk's firm xAI. It can be accessed either through its website and app, or through the social media platform X. The IWF said it found sexualised and topless imagery of girls on a dark web forum in which users claimed they used Grok to create the imagery. The BBC has approached X and xAI for comment.
