"Elon Musk isn't the only party at fault for Grok's nonconsensual intimate deepfakes of real people, including children. What about Apple and Google? The two (frequently virtue-signaling) companies have inexplicably allowed Grok and X to remain in their app stores - even as Musk's chatbot reportedly continues to produce the material. On Wednesday, a coalition of women's and progressive advocacy groups called on Tim Cook and Sundar Pichai to uphold their own rules and remove the apps."
"not just enabling NCII and CSAM, but profiting off of it. As a coalition of organizations committed to the online safety and well-being of all - particularly women and children - as well as the ethical application of artificial intelligence (AI), we demand that Apple leadership urgently remove Grok and X from the App Store to prevent further abuse and criminal activity."
Apple and Google have kept Grok and X available in their app stores even though app-store guidelines prohibit apps that enable nonconsensual intimate images and child sexual abuse material. A coalition of 28 women's and progressive advocacy groups, including Ultraviolet, ParentsTogether Action, and the National Organization for Women, demanded that Apple and Google remove the apps. The coalition accused the companies of enabling and profiting from NCII and CSAM. Reported Grok output included roughly 6,700 images per hour over a 24-hour period, with an estimated 85 percent sexualized; other declothing deepfake sites averaged 79 new images per hour.
