The EU is investigating X over the spread of illegal images, including possible child sexual abuse material, generated by Grok on the platform.
The European Union is launching an investigation into Grok as Elon Musk’s AI chatbot continues to face backlash over its spreading of AI-generated sexual images.
The European Commission, the bloc’s governing body, said on Monday that it had opened a formal investigation into X over the spread of illegal images, including possible child sexual abuse material, generated by Grok on the social media site.
The Commission said it would also extend an ongoing investigation into X’s recommendation algorithm, with the regulator previously fining the social media platform $140 million over its “deceptive” blue checkmarks.
