UK regulator investigates Elon Musk's X over sexualized AI images from Grok

The UK's media regulator has launched a formal investigation into Elon Musk's social media platform X. The probe focuses on the spread of sexualized AI-generated images, including depictions of women and children, which were reportedly created using X's own AI tool called Grok.

UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer said X is now taking steps to comply with UK law regarding these deepfakes. The government has signaled support for the regulator, which could impose fines or even a platform ban. Musk has accused the UK of trying to suppress free speech over the matter.
