    Surprising amount of people wanna create sexualised images of unconsenting women and children.

  2. VPackardPersuadedMe on

    I hope someone keeps a list. It’s pretty hectic what’s happening here.

    App gets called out for letting the user make sexualised images of children, App gets a sudden uptake in users.

    Yeah, these people need their harddrives checked.

  4. Cute_Ad_9730 on

    Idle curiosity after major media discussion is hardly surprising.

    People on here are starting to sound like Peter Kyle now that it’s twitter in contention.

    I don’t use grok anyway but are people probably downloading it now incase it gets banned?

    World: “child porn isn’t right don’t distribute it”

    The right wing: arrrghhhhh!!!

    Outed yourselves lads. Good keep downloading. Makes a nice easy to find list of people to add to the register

    Let’s talk about how water bills and electricity bills have gone through the roof to pay for said data centres. The trillion dollar companies should pay for the infrastructure costs, but we the general public do.

    Someone will try telling me that I am wrong but it’s very easy to google that I am correct. Not doing the very easy leg work for people anymore.

    What goes through the tiny minds of these people?

    Headline: AI tool is used by deviants and paedophiles to create horrific pornographic images on non-consenting adults and children.

    Morons: That sounds interesting, I’ll download it.

    WTF!? WTAF..!? Are these idiots damaged?

    I know nothing about Grok. Apart from abusive use is it of any value?

  11. Impressive-Bird-6085 on

    Grok is a croc – of shite! Rather like its fascist owner…

  12. Special-Audience-426 on

    Crazy. I literally can’t think of an app I’d be less likely to install right now. 

    I quite like not being on lists and being the harmless type of weird.

    Very eager to generate inappropriate images of women and children, hmm?

  14. WumbleInTheJungle on

    I get that we are in unchartered territory with generative AI, but if a company, or indeed Elon Musk is distributing an app that creates or is capable of creating child pornography, and they are doing nothing to prevent their users from generating illegal images (which I understand it is illegal in this country, even if it is generated by AI), then if the government had any balls they would be applying to have the owners of the app extradited where they should be facing charges, or be arrested as soon as they step on UK soil or any country that is will to cooperate with us.

    If we are arresting people for making offensive tweets, then we should be arresting millionaires / billionaires who are doing far more egregious stuff.  

    If the app is being distributed on the Google play store and/or apple app store, then action.should be taken against Google and Apple too.

    This is just like when gun sales go up in the US after a school shooting

    Lots of people commenting that this means people want to use the app for nefarious use. They clearly don’t understand British people. We hate it when the nanny state tells us we aren’t allowed to do anything. There’s a reason 1984 was written in Britain. We have a deep distrust of the state encroaching on our individual freedoms.

  17. Dapper_Otters on

    Because they want to create sexual images of women they know, and children.

    Are we really pretending that isn’t the primary reason for the uptick?

  18. SpottedDicknCustard on

    I had reported X last week but not thought to do grok.

    Just went to report it and apple have removed the option to do so.

  19. davinist on

    Are these likely to be genuine downloads or is it possible that Musk is somehow massaging the figures by getting bot accounts to download Grok?

  20. Ok-Lifeguard9446 on

    Ban X, who needs it anyway. Deeply damaging on so many levels.

  21. trophyisabyproduct on

    At this stage, I will genuinely question the reason of downloading Grok app…. if I happen to see it on someone’s phone.. .

  22. scorcherchar on

    Im really hoping this is curious people checking if it will really do sexulised images of people by checking on their own sfw images. The alternative is rather concerning

  23. OiseauxDeath on

    Well thats a pretty big indictment of the british public

  24. DecipherXCI on

    Lots if weirdos getting a last minute goon session before its banned.

    Actually a little bit shocking that the news that Grok is being used to sexualise people is what pushed it to no.1

  25. frowningtap on

    Don’t block the app, block its CDN that way you break the app into compliance.

  26. BilboSmashings on

    Mfers downloaded it just to say “fuck off” because clearly no one wanted ot before this lmao.

  27. dewittless on

    I’m gonna go ahead and suggest it’s bots doing this to make a headline. And it doesn’t matter if that’s true or not because that’s not how the internet works anymore.

  28. Wescombe on

    Are you sure people aren’t downloading it because if it’s removed from the App Store they won’t be able to get it later? But users who already have it will still be able to use it

  29. Angelsomething on

    Huh. That’s lots of nonces around my area I wasn’t ready to be made aware of.
