The Indian Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology has ordered Elon Musk's X platform to immediately make technical modifications to its AI chatbot Grok, restricting its ability to generate "obscene" or explicit sexual content, including AI-modified images of women. The directive was issued following complaints from users and legislators, requiring the X platform to submit a compliance report within 72 hours and warning that failure to act could result in the loss of its legal immunity for user-generated content under Indian law. This move highlights India's increasingly strict scrutiny of AI-generated content and poses a significant challenge for global platforms operating in one of the world's largest digital markets.
