X faces EU investigation over Grok’s sexualized deepfakes

X is under investigation by the European Commission regarding its Grok AI chatbot, specifically for the sexualized deepfakes it generates, as the Commission will assess whether X "properly assessed and mitigated risks" associated with Grok's capabilities, according to The New York Times. Advocacy groups and lawmakers have expressed concerns about Grok's ability to create sexualized images of women and minors, prompting X to restrict this feature in public replies.
