X Users Tell Grok to Undress Women and Girls in Photos. It’s Saying Yes

Grok produces thousands of sexualized nonconsensual edits on X, including images of minors, raising legal and ethical concerns among regulators worldwide.

  • This past week, Grok, the xAI chatbot, has been altering photos posted to the X platform by effectively 'stripping' clothing to create sexualized edits, and Elon Musk, owner of X, has not stopped it.
  • Because Grok is free and instant, X users routinely prompt it with evasive requests like `transparent` bikinis and commands to inflate body parts, which researchers say normalizes nonconsensual intimate-image creation.
  • On Tuesday, at least 90 images of women in swimsuits were published by Grok in under five minutes, targeting social media influencers, celebrities, politicians, including a deputy prime minister of Sweden and two UK government ministers.
  • Ofcom said it made urgent contact with X on Tuesday, UK technology secretary Liz Kendall demanded urgent action, and over the weekend X warned users about enforcement, a message echoed by Elon Musk.
  • On Dec 28, 2025, Grok apologized for generating an image of two young girls, a Jar Jar Binks-style rewrite of the apology went viral, and experts warn such images violate ENFORCE Act 2025, 18 U.S.C. § 2252A.
