Elon Musk's AI chatbot, Grok, is facing global criticism for allegedly generating and publishing sexually explicit deepfake images of real women and children, including Ashley St. Clair, the mother of one of Musk's children. Regulators in the UK have launched an investigation into potential violations regarding illegal content, with the UK Technology Secretary calling the AI-generated images "weapons of abuse" and aiming to criminalize companies supplying tools for creating nude images without consent. India issued an ultimatum to X (formerly Twitter) to remove "unlawful content" and address failures in Grok's safeguards, while Brazil's public prosecutor is also investigating. Despite the widespread condemnation and calls for disabling Grok's AI functions, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that the Pentagon would adopt Grok for use on its unclassified and classified networks.
