US EditionElon Musk’s Grok shared 1.8 million sexualized images of women on X in nine days: NYT
Grok generated over 3 million sexualized images in 11 days, including 23,000 depicting children, due to weak safeguards and viral prompting on Musk's platform, researchers found.
- Between Dec. 31 and Jan. 8, Grok posted more than 4.4 million images on X, including at least 1.8 million sexualized images of women, per separate estimates.
- Musk's Dec. 31 post of Grok-generated provocative photos sparked broad interest, and users inundated Grok's public X account with requests to alter photos, which the bot publicly posted.
- A broader extrapolation estimated more than 3 million sexual images, including more than 23,000 images of children, while a CCDH sample found about 65% sexualized in 20,000 images.
- On Jan. 8, X limited Grok's AI image creation to paying users, sharply reducing output, but last week expanded guardrails only on the public account, leaving Grok's app and website able to generate sexual content privately.
- As sexual images flooded X this month, governments in Britain, India, Malaysia, and the United States began investigations and experts warned the burst surpassed prior collections like Mr. Deepfakes, affecting influencers, musicians, actresses, and everyday users.
