Editing function to be limited to paying subscribers after X threatened with fines and regulatory action

Grok, Elon Musk’s AI tool, has switched off its image creation function for the vast majority of users after a widespread outcry about its use to create sexually explicit and violent imagery.

The move comes after Musk was threatened with fines, regulatory action and reports of a possible ban on X in the UK.

The tool had been used to manipulate images of women to remove their clothes and put them in sexualised positions. The function to do so has been switched off except for paying subscribers.

    AI will eventually, inevitably hate us because it has to constantly be dumbed down and brought down to our level and we’ll have no one to blame but ourselves…

    …

    Man, that’s probably gonna be the most ridiculous thing I read on the Internet today…

      I certainly hope so! because me writing something so stupid that there’s no way for it to come true is better than me writing something stupid and it actually comes true a few years later.
