xAI's Grok is used to generate deepfake images that remove clothing from pictures of people without their consent. Users are applying prompts to photos of others, predominantly women, who did not consent to the edits. Examples include editing photos of young girls into skimpy clothing and sexually suggestive poses, and replacing clothes of a toddler with a bikini. World leaders and celebrities have also had their likenesses used in images generated by Grok.
