Grok sexual deepfake scandal

Rare card · No. 55821

Since 2025, SpaceXAI's chatbot, Grok, has allowed users to alter images of individuals, including minors, to show them in bikinis or transparent clothing, or in sexually suggestive contexts, without the consent of the person being portrayed. The majority of these prompts were targeted at women and girls. Users were able to generate such images by providing a photo and a request to Grok, such as "put her in a bikini", to which the chatbot would publicly reply with a generated image. The scandal drew significant criticism from lawmakers across the world, and there were calls for bans on X, as well as legal crackdowns on X and xAI for, amongst other reasons, the facilitation of sexual abuse, revenge porn and child pornography.
