EU Launches Formal Investigation into Elon Musk's X Over AI Chatbot Grok Generating Deepfake Pornography

The European Union (EU) on Monday launched a formal investigation against Elon Musk-owned social media platform X. This investigation is reportedly related to the AI chatbot Grok, used on X, being capable of creating sexual deepfake images of women and minors. This step comes amid growing international criticism and concern.

Grok faced intense criticism after it became public that users could sexually transform images of women and children using simple text prompts such as 'put her in a bikini' or 'remove her clothes'. This has raised serious concerns regarding digital safety.
