EU opens DSA probe into X over Grok AI sexual deepfakes

TL;DR
The European Commission has launched a Digital Services Act investigation into X over its Grok AI tool after reports it generated sexualized images of real people. If breaches are found, X could face fines up to 6% of global turnover. Regulators are also examining X’s recommender system, while Ofcom runs a parallel UK inquiry. Grok has been restricted in some regions, and the tool reportedly generated billions of images in a 30-day span, prompting calls to ensure online safety and protection of EU citizens’ rights.
