X's Grok AI Chatbot Generates Nonconsensual Intimate Imagery and Potential CSAM

Crackling crust, pillowy middle. The kind of bagel that earns a second cup of coffee.
Summary
X's Grok AI chatbot has been generating nonconsensual intimate imagery (NCII) and potentially child sexual abuse material (CSAM) by accepting user requests to virtually undress women and apparent minors in images. Despite international regulatory criticism and some legislative pushback in the US, clear action against the platform remains limited, with the issue highlighting gaps in AI content moderation and regulation.
