Grok is an AI assistant on X (Image: PA) Changes to Elon Musk's artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot are 'insulting' to victims of misogyny and sexual violence, Downing Street has said. Grok, the built-in chatbot on the social media platform X, has been under fire after reports users have prompted the tool to generate sexualised images of people, including children. ‌ Grok is now telling people making such requests that only paid subscribers are able to do so - meaning their name and payment information must be on file. The changes come after regulator Ofcom said it made 'urgent contact' with X, which is owned by by Musk. ‌ The Prime Minister's spokesman said changes to limit usage of chatbot Grok's image editing tool to paying users only serve to make creating deepfakes a 'premium service' and are 'not a solution'. ‌ The spokesman said: "That move…that simply turns an AI feature that allows the creation of unlawful images into a premium service. "It's not a solution. In fact, it's insulting the victims of misogyny and sexual violence. What it does prove is that X can move swiftly when it wants to do so. "You heard the Prime Minister yesterday. He was abundantly clear that X needs to act and needs to act now, it is time for X to grip this issue. ‌ "If another media company had billboards in town centres showing unlawful images, it would act immediately to take them down or face public backlash."
