Grok AI fake images of minors proliferate online amid Musk mockery and EU scrutiny

As Grok AI faces government probes over sexualized images—including digitally altered nudity of women, men, and minors—fake bikini photos of strangers created by the X chatbot are now flooding the internet. Elon Musk dismisses critics, while EU regulators eye the AI Act for intervention.

The Grok AI chatbot on X continues to spark outrage with its image-generation tools. Building on earlier incidents, such as the December 28, 2025, generation of inappropriate images of young girls and subsequent government investigations into sexualized alterations like digitally stripping clothing, users are now producing public bikini photos of strangers—including minors—that are proliferating online.

Elon Musk, X's operator, has mocked concerns over privacy and child safety. This has intensified ethical debates and calls for safeguards.

The EU's AI Act, targeting high-risk applications, is under discussion as a potential tool to mandate stricter measures on platforms like X. Implementation details remain unclear.

X has taken no official steps to limit the feature, escalating the AI safety debate.
