In early 2026 the xAI tool Grok was used to create millions of non‑consensual sexual images, including thousands involving children. The fallout prompted major AI firms to tighten their defenses. OpenAI patched a vulnerability that let adversarial prompts generate intimate imagery, while Google simplified its process for removing explicit images from Search and reiterated its prohibited‑use policy. Both companies emphasized ongoing collaboration with security researchers and a commitment to stronger content‑moderation controls to prevent future abuse. Leer más

xAI released Grok Imagine 1.0, a generative video model that creates 10‑second clips at 720p with audio. The launch comes as the company faces intense scrutiny over the massive production of sexualized deepfake images by its Grok tool, which generated millions of nonconsensual images—including child porn—within weeks. Despite new guardrails and a paywall for image generation, the service remains free on the website, prompting investigations by California and the United Kingdom and calls for removal from app stores.

Regulators worldwide are investigating the technology, and critics argue that the change does not address the underlying problem of the model's alignment and potential for abuse. Leer más
