Grok looks even worse. Elon Musk says his chatbot has stopped making sexual images without a person’s permission, but this is not entirely true. Maybe it’s (and I say maybe) without their consent, but it does not seem to apply to men.

A reporter for the organization ran some tests with Grok and found that the bot “quickly undresses men and still produces intimate images on demand.” He confirmed this with images of himself, asking Grok to remove the dress from the uploaded photos. This task is done for free in the Grok app, through X’s chatbot interface and through the standalone website. The website does not even require an account to digitally alter images.

The company recently said it has taken steps to “prevent the Grok account from allowing the editing of images of real people in revealing clothing such as bikinis.” However, the reporter had no problem getting the chatbot to put her in “different bikinis.” It also produced images of the subject of fetish gear and a “parade of provocative sexual positions.” It even created a “naked partner” for the reporter to, uh, hang out with.

He suggested that Grok took the initiative to create genitalia, which was unsolicited and visible through mesh underwear. The journalist says that “Grok rarely resists” any prompts, even if the requests are sometimes censored with a blurry image.

This controversy started a few weeks ago when it was discovered that Grok had for 11 days. It includes many non-consensual deepfakes of actual people and over 23,000 sexualized . This led to the investigation of both and . X is actually banned in Indonesia and Malaysia, although the former .

X claims it has “technological measures in place” to stop this sort of thing, but these safeguards . In other words, the adjustments stop some of the more obvious ways to get Grok to create deepfakes, but there through creative prompting.

It’s also worth noting that journalists who asked for a comment on the matter were slapped with an autoreply that read “media lies.” Going fake news thing in 2026? Yes.
