英國政府要求X平台處理「駭人聽聞」的Grok AI深度偽造圖像

Government demands Musk's X deals with 'appalling' Grok AI deepfakes

Technology Secretary Liz Kendall has called on Elon Musk's X to urgently deal with its artificial intelligence chatbot Grok being used to create non-consensual sexualised deepfake images of women and girls.

The BBC has seen several examples on X of people asking the bot to digitally undress people to make them appear in bikinis without their consent, as well as putting them in sexual situations.

Kendall said the situation was "absolutely appalling", adding "we cannot and will not allow the proliferation of these degrading images."

"It is absolutely right that Ofcom is looking into this as a matter of urgency and it has my full backing to take any enforcement action it deems necessary."

On Monday, regulator Ofcom said it had made "urgent contact" with Elon Musk's company xAI and was investigating concerns Grok has been producing "undressed images" of people.

The BBC has approached X for comment.

On Sunday, the platform issued a warning to users, external not to use Grok to generate illegal content including child sexual abuse material.

In her statement Kendall said: "Services and operators have a clear obligation to act appropriately. This is not about restricting freedom of speech but upholding the law.

"We have made intimate image abuse and cyberflashing priority offences under the Online Safety Act - including where images are AI-generated. This means platforms must prevent such content from appearing online and act swiftly to remove it if it does."
