Brazil Gives X 5 Days to Stop Grok Generating Explicit AI Images

 

Brazil's regulatory authorities have issued a directive ordering Elon Musk's social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to immediately implement measures blocking its AI chatbot Grok from generating sexualized or eroticized deepfakes. This targets content involving children, adolescents, or adults without consent.

Indonesia became the first country to block Grok entirely last month, while Britain and France said they would maintain pressure after the chatbot cranked out a flood of lewd photos of women and children.

X must “immediately implement appropriate measures to prevent the production, using Grok, of sexualized or eroticized content of children and adolescents, as well as adults who have not given their consent,” said Brazil’s chief prosecutor, the National Data Protection Agency (ANPD) and the National Consumer Rights Bureau (Senacon.)
