Grok is back in the headlines as X’s AI app faces global scrutiny over harmful content and non-consensual imagery. Elon Musk’s bot.
As of April 20, 2026, Elon Musk and former X CEO Linda Yaccarino have been summoned for voluntary interviews by French prosecutors investigating X since January 2025. The probe covers allegations including algorithm manipulation, child sexual abuse imagery, Holocaust denial, and sexual deepfakes generated by X's AI chatbot Grok. The US Justice Department has declined cooperation, citing constitutional concerns.
Labour MP Jess Asato has filed a High Court claim against Elon Musk’s xAI alleging Grok-created non-consensual sexualised images and a video have harmed her, testing accountability for AI design in the process.
