There were guardrails that the engineers and Elon Musk could have put in place to stop Grok from being able to create sexualised images but they decided not to put those guardrails in place.

I guess that’s the centre of my case, is to say that it doesn’t matter how quickly things were then repaired. Once the damage is done, the damage is done.

I feel like this is almost a watershed moment. We have known that for many years women have faced this growing tsunami of online misogyny... that Grok managed to create on a mass level.

It feels demeaning and degrading because that's what it's designed to do.
