"The launch of an AI image editing feature on xAI's Grok has caused chaos on X after it was used to generate a flood of non-consensual sexualized deepfakes. As Hayden Field wrote, "screenshots show Grok complying with requests to put real women in lingerie and make them spread their legs, and to put small children in bikinis.""
"UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the deepfakes "disgusting," saying, "X need[s] to get their act together and get this material down. And we will take action on this because it's simply not tolerable." X has slightly restricted the feature by requiring a paid subscription to generate images by tagging Grok on X, but the AI image editor remains freely available otherwise."

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the deepfakes "disgusting" and demanded X remove the material, promising government action.
