EU, UK, India open probes as X floods with AI deepfakes
Social media platform X was overwhelmed by a wave of explicit fake images made with AI tool Grok, creating a global uproar. In just one day, researchers found over 160,000 deepfakes, many targeting famous people and even political leaders. The EU, UK, and India quickly launched investigations, demanding answers and threatening big penalties. Even after putting stricter rules and paywalls in place, X struggled to stop offensive images from spreading. Experts warn that unless stronger safeguards and checks are added, these dangerous AI images could multiply again soon.
