Malaysia suspended access to Elon Musk's chatbot Grok over AI-generated pornographic content, the country's tech regulator said on Sunday. When an AFP reporter in the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur fed Grok prompts on Sunday, there was no response. 'This action follows repeated misuse of Grok to generate obscene, sexually explicit, indecent, grossly offensive and non-consensual manipulated images,' the regulator said. Former transport minister Louise Haigh said the Government and Labour party ought to 'remove themselves entirely' from social media site X. Regulator Ofcom said it made 'urgent contact' with Musk's social media platform.
