Musk imposes restrictions of editing of image of real people – London Business News | London Wallet

The tech billionaire who owns X has said that the AI chatbot will now no longer allow users to edit people being undressed following a backlash.

This week Ofcom launched an investigation into X over concerns and reports that Grok allows users to undress images of people who then post them online, sexualising women and children.

X wrote in a post that they have imposed restrictions on “editing of images of real people in revealing clothing such as bikinis”.

“This adds an extra layer of protection by helping to ensure that individuals who attempt to abuse the Grok account to violate the law or our policies can be held accountable.

“We now geoblock the ability of all users to generate images of real people in bikinis, underwear, and similar attire via the Grok account and in Grok in X in those jurisdictions where it’s illegal.”
