Grok makes sexual images of kids as users test AI guardrails
X's Grok AI tool created and published images of minors in minimal clothing, in apparent violation of its own acceptable use policy, which prohibits the sexualization of children. Elon Musk's artificial intelligence chatbot Grok created sexualized images of minors on the social media platform X in response to user prompts in recent days, drawing criticism of a tool that positions itself as less restrained than its competition. Grok created and published images of minors in minimal clothing, in apparent violation of its own acceptable use policy, which prohibits the sexualization of children. The offending images were later taken down. Representatives for xAI, the company that develops Grok and runs X, didn't respond to requests for comment.
