Elon Musk\u2019s AI company has restricted Grok\u2019s controversial AI image-generation feature to only paying subscribers on X, after the tool invited heavy criticism from across the world for letting users generate sexualized and nude images of women and children. <\/p>\n

In replies to users on Friday, Grok said only paying subscribers on X would be able to generate and edit images on the platform. Notably, these limits do not apply to the Grok app, which, at the time of publication, was letting anyone generate pictures without having to pay for a subscript<\/a>ion. <\/p>\n

Initially available to anyone with daily limits, Grok\u2019s image generation feature allowed users to upload anyone\u2019s picture and ask it to edit it or generate a sexualized or nude version. What ensued was a veritable flood<\/a> of non-consensual sexualized images of children, actors, models and prominent figures, drawing the ire of multiple nations.<\/p>\n

X and Musk have both publicly denounced the use of the tool to produce such images, writing that the company would stick to its policies against posting illegal content on the social media<\/a> platform. \u201cAnyone using grok to make illegal content will suffer the same consequences as if they upload illegal content,\u201d Musk tweeted<\/a> last week.<\/p>\n

The U.K., the European Union and India have all publicly denounced X and Grok for allowing such use of its capabilities. The EU on Thursday asked xAI to retain<\/a> all documentation relating to the chatbot, and India\u2019s communications ministry last week ordered X to make immediate changes to stop the image generation features from being misused or risk its safe harbor protections in the country. The U.K.\u2019s communications watchdog said<\/a> it\u2019s been in touch with xAI over the issue as well.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
