Following the proliferation of the nonconsensual sexual deepfakes on X, the platform has detailed changes to the Grok account’s ability to edit images of real people. They match the changes reported on Tuesday by The Telegraph, as Grok’s responses to prompts like “put her in a bikini” became censored.
But in tests of the feature on Wednesday, we found that it was still relatively easy to get Grok to generate revealing deepfakes, while X and xAI owner Elon Musk blamed the problems on “user requests” and “times when adversarial hacking of Grok prompts does something unexpected.” As of Wednesday evening, despite the policy’s claims, our reporters were still able to use the Grok app to generate revealing images of a person in a bikini using a free account.
Terrible people, which is why it should not have the ability to do this no matter what prompts they use.
And Telegraph reporters, apparently.
The Telegraph is extremely right wing, so that would reduce to just terrible people.
