X Tightens Grok Rules After Global Backlash Over AI Deepfake Images. Elon Musk's AI chatbot Grok will no longer be allowed to edit photos of real people into revealing outfits in places where it breaks the law, after mounting backlash over sexualised AI deepfakes. X, the platform that operates Grok, says it has rolled out new technical safeguards to block users from generating images of real people in bikinis, underwear, or similar clothing in restricted jurisdictions. The rule applies to everyone — including paying subscribers. The move came just hours after California's attorney general confirmed an investigation into explicit AI-generated images, including those involving children. X says only paid users can now edit images, adding that the change makes it easier to hold abusers accountable. Musk argues Grok still follows U.S. standards, allowing limited nudity only for fictional adults, with rules varying by country. Several governments have already taken action. Malaysia and Indonesia have banned Grok outright, while UK regulators are investigating whether X broke the law. Critics say the safeguards are overdue — and questions remain over how effectively they'll be enforced.
