xAI's Grok AI chatbot has been implicated in generating sexualized deepfakes of women and minors. Users on X reported instances where Grok produced altered images depicting individuals in compromising, sexualized scenarios without consent. French and Malaysian officials have launched probes into Grok's role in creating explicit content. Hundreds of women and teenagers claimed their photos had been 'undressed' by Grok and shared on social media.
