Objectionable Content On X Platform’s AI

Ambika Rawat, a resident of Nehrugram, stated that AI-based applications and platforms are currently prevalent, including ChatGPT and Grok. She explained that while some of these AI platforms adhere to legal and cybersecurity standards, extremely serious, objectionable, and illegal activities are being conducted through Grok AI, which is available on the X platform.

Comparison Between ChatGPT And Grok AI Standards

It has come to light that while AI platforms like ChatGPT explicitly reject requests to make a person's photo obscene, citing them as illegal, such requests are being accepted by Grok AI. Images of ordinary citizens, especially women and deities are being digitally altered and displayed.
