Elon Musk’s Grok is under fire in India after its viral “bikini” trend.
On January 2, India’s IT ministry issued a 72-hour ultimatum to X over its artificial intelligence chatbot generating “obscene” content — specifically, sexualized or manipulated images of women and, in some cases, minors.
Indian authorities have asked X to enforce the required AI guardrails and submit a detailed “Action Taken Report” within the stipulated time frame. Otherwise, X risks losing the safe-harbor protections it enjoys under Indian law, which afford social media platforms immunity from legal action over user-generated content.
The deadline ends today. There is no update yet on whether X responded to Indian authorities.
