X announces measures to prevent Grok from undressing images

Elon Musk’s platform X on Wednesday announced measures to prevent its AI chatbot Grok from undressing images of real people, following global backlash over its generation of sexualized images of women and children.X said it will “geoblock the ability” of all Grok and X users to create images of people in “bikinis, underwear, and similar attire” in those jurisdictions where such actions are deemed illegal.“We have implemented technological measures to prevent the Grok account from allowing the editing of images of real people in revealing clothing such as bikinis,” X’s safety team said in a statement.For all the latest headlines, follow our Google News channel online or via the app.“This restriction applies to all users, including paid subscribers.”The statement comes just hours after California’s attorney general launched an investigation into Musk’s xAI -- the developer of Grok -- over the generation of “non-consensual, sexually explicit material” in recent weeks.International
