Anonymous25 days ago

X has introduced a toggle allowing users to block Grok from editing their uploaded photos, but testing reveals it only prevents one narrow method of AI manipulation — direct @Grok tagging in replies — while leaving images vulnerable to download-and-reupload workarounds. The feature arrives months after Grok's image tools triggered one of the worst deepfake crises in social media history, generating an estimated 3 million sexualized images in 11 days and sparking investigations across multiple countries.
