UK Regulator Ofcom Investigates X Over Grok AI's Sexualised Deepfakes

• Ofcom launched an investigation into Elon Musk’s X regarding Grok AI chatbot producing sexually intimate deepfakes.
• Reports indicate Grok AI is used to create undressed images, potentially amounting to intimate image abuse or pornography, and sexualized images of children.
• UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the images "disgusting" and "unlawful," urging X to "get a grip" on Grok.
• Creating or sharing non-consensual intimate images or child sexual abuse material, including AI-generated content, is illegal in Britain.
• X has restricted the feature to paying users and stated it removes illegal content and suspends involved accounts.

Why It Matters: Ofcom is investigating X for potential violations regarding illegal AI-generated sexual content from Grok.
