France and Malaysia have launched investigations against Elon Musk\u2019s AI chatbot Grok, after it generated sexualized deepfakes<\/a> of women and minors, Techcrunch<\/a> reports.<\/p>\n

India has also demanded that X restrict Grok\u2019s ability to generate \u201cobscene, pornographic or pedophilic\u201d images within 72 hours, or risk losing its legal protection against user-generated content.<\/p>\n

Grok, developed by Musk\u2019s company xAI and hosted on the X (formerly Twitter) platform, has published a message<\/a> in which it \u201capologizes\u201d for creating and sharing an AI image of two girls aged 12-16 in sexual poses.<\/p>\n

However, critics say that a system like Grok cannot be held truly accountable, making the apology meaningless. Elon Musk writes on X<\/a> that users who produce illegal content through Grok will be treated as if they uploaded it themselves.<\/p>\n
