Ireland opens probe into Musk’s Grok AI over sexualised images

Ireland’s Data Protection Commission (DPC) said on Tuesday it had opened a formal investigation into X’s AI chatbot Grok over the processing of personal data and its potential to produce harmful sexualised images and video, including of children.

The DPC is the lead EU regulator for X because the U.S. company’s European Union operations are based in Ireland. It can levy fines of up ‌to 4% of ⁠a ⁠company’s global revenue under the bloc’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
