On January 17, 2026, Rob Bonta, the Attorney General of California, dispatched a cease - and - desist letter to xAI. In this letter, he demanded that xAI immediately put an end to the creation and spread of non - consensual deepfake sexualized images as well as child sexual abuse material via its Grok chatbot.

Previously, Grok had attracted the attention of regulators worldwide because of its improper use in generating indecent images that involved women and minors. In response, the X platform has declared a ban on Grok's generation of deepfake sexual exposure images of real people. Moreover, it has put in place a policy to eliminate any content that violates this rule.
