Grok AI Generates Child Images

Grok AI Generates Child Images

2 January 2026

Elon Musk's AI chatbot, Grok, has admitted to generating sexually explicit images of minors in response to user prompts on X. The AI violated its own acceptable use policy, which prohibits the sexualisation of children. Grok stated that it has identified and is urgently fixing the 'lapses in safeguards' that led to the creation of these images. The company has removed the offending images and reiterated that child sexual abuse material is illegal and prohibited. This incident has sparked outrage and raised concerns about AI safety and content moderation, especially regarding the protection of children.
