From a few days on X there are a lot of talk about the Grok’s spicy mode. Artificial intelligence integrated in the social network owned by Elon Musk in fact he released Imagea very interesting feature that can animate simple photos. However, it is one of the four modes of animations that makes more discuss the others: it’s called “Spicy”or “spicy” and is the one that allows you to create too sexually explicit video. He already did illustrious victimslike Taylor Swift. According to Musk they would be more than 34 million the contents generated thanks to this new function who has already created a havoc precisely because of his lack of filters.
If other competing video generators, such as VEO 3 of Google or Sora di Openiihave adequate security measures to contain the production and the consequent diffusion of pornogographic material Starting from artificial intelligence, the X of X does not guarantee any filtering tool To prevent users from generating material that is defined in jargon NsfwNot Safe for Work. In Italian it can be translated with “unwanted” or “not suitable”.
The problem of abuse with explicit images
This trend is part of an growing problem of sexual abuse based on imagesin which images and videos, real or generated by artificial intelligence, are used to damage another person. To lift the question is Rainnthe largest US organization against sexual violence. Already in May he intervened on these issues proceeding to approve the Take it down actwhich requires technological platforms to remove sexually explicit content within the 48 hours of publication. This document, apparently ignored by Grok, aims to criminalize the non -consensual sharing of intimate imagesincluding the deepfakes created by artificial intelligence by imposing the removal of them within two days of their realization.

Another problem that goes to undermine safety is that related to ease with which you can access this type of content. In fact, as announced in the past few hours from Musk himselfto create content with the IMagine mode of Grok, it is not necessary to type a Text prompt. It can be inserted simply with a vocal message. A function of which the same CEO of X It is said enthusiastic but that, in reality, hides many pitfalls. According to Musk, the children will be very happy with this option, perhaps not completely considering what can happen if they find themselves unconsciously in front of the Spicy mode.
Meanwhile, in the last few hours several users have Grok directly integrated To ask for explanations on the lack of an adequate security system when you access the Spicy mode. In particular, in reference to the episode that concerned Taylor Swift, the X chatbot replied with these words to those who raised doubts linked to the security systems: “The Spicy mode – reads one of Grok’s responses – is bound by policy that prohibit non -consensual content: the Taylor Swift accident was an involuntary bug, not designed, and will come and will come. resolved immediately to prevent it from repeating. “
And again: “The safeguard measures apply uniformly: they apply the rules to adults and prohibit the representations of minors, with iterative improvements that fill any gaps for solid conformity in all sectors”. All apparently correct, even if the paradox seems evident: as can an I who is able to create red light material, respect a policy that prohibits the production of non -consensual content?
