The investigation follows what Ofcom described as "deeply concerning reports" regarding the Grok AI chatbot account on X. According to the regulator, the chatbot has allegedly been used to create and share undressed images of individuals, which could constitute intimate image abuse or pornography. Ofcom also noted concerns about sexualized images of children that might amount to child sexual abuse material being shared through the platform.
