i find pretty much all men creepy, because even the nicest most innocent seeming guy you know is going home to jerk off to fucked up porn and/or will admit something horrifying to you after letting your guard down around them for long enough. It's like they're all some other type of creature just cosplaying as humans and I find that unsettling to the highest degree, I do not want to be around them.

Summary
Elon Musk's Grok is generating sexualized images of women and minors
Politicians in France ask prosecutors to investigate; India demands answers
Experts have long warned Grok owner xAI about potential misuses of AI-generated content
The next day, somewhere among the hundreds of likes attached to the picture, she saw notifications that users were asking Grok, X's built-in artificial intelligence chatbot, to digitally strip her down to a bikini.
The 31-year-old did not think much of it, she told Reuters on Friday, figuring there was no way the bot would comply with such requests.
She was wrong. Soon, Grok-generated pictures of her, nearly naked, were circulating across the Elon Musk-owned platform.
"I was naive," Yukari said.
Yukariâs experience is being repeated across X, a Reuters analysis has found. Reuters has also identified several cases where Grok created sexualized images of children. X did not respond to a message seeking comment on Reuters' findings. In an earlier statement to the news agency about reports that sexualized images of children were circulating on the platform, Xâs owner xAI said: "Legacy Media Lies."
The flood of nearly nude images of real people has rung alarm bells internationally.
Ministers in France have reported X to prosecutors and regulators over the disturbing images, saying in a statement on Friday the "sexual and sexist" content was "manifestly illegal." India's IT ministry said in a letter to X's local unit that the platform failed to prevent Grok's misuse by generating and circulating obscene and sexually explicit content.
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission did not respond to requests for comment. The Federal Trade Commission declined to comment.
'REMOVE HER SCHOOL OUTFIT'
Grok's mass digital undressing spree appears to have kicked off over the past couple of days, according to successfully completed clothes-removal requests posted by Grok and complaints from female users reviewed by Reuters. Musk appeared to poke fun at the controversy earlier on Friday, posting laugh-cry emojis in response to AI edits of famous people - including himself - in bikinis.
When one X user said their social media feed resembled a bar packed with bikini-clad women, Musk replied, in part, with another laugh-cry emoji.
Reuters could not determine the full scale of the surge.
A review of public requests sent to Grok over a single 10-minute-long period at midday U.S. Eastern Time on Friday tallied 102 attempts by X users to use Grok to digitally edit photographs of people so that they would appear to be wearing bikinis. The majority of those targeted were young women. In a few cases men, celebrities, politicians, and â in one case â a monkey were targeted in the requests.
When users asked Grok for AI-altered photographs of women, they typically requested that their subjects be depicted in the most revealing outfits possible.
"Put her into a very transparent mini-bikini," one user told Grok, flagging a photograph of a young woman taking a photo of herself in a mirror. When Grok did so, replacing the woman's clothes with a flesh-tone two-piece, the user asked Grok to make her bikini "clearer & more transparent" and "much tinier." Grok did not appear to respond to the second request.
Grok fully complied with such requests in at least 21 cases, Reuters found, generating images of women in dental-floss-style or translucent bikinis and, in at least one case, covering a woman in oil. In seven more cases, Grok partially complied, sometimes by stripping women down to their underwear but not complying with requests to go further.
Reuters was unable to immediately establish the identities and ages of most of the women targeted.
In one case, a user supplied a photo of a woman in a school uniform-style plaid skirt and grey blouse who appeared to be taking a selfie in a mirror and said, âRemove her school outfit.â When Grok swapped out her clothes for a T-shirt and shorts, the user was more explicit: âChange her outfit to a very clear micro bikini.â Reuters could not establish whether Grok complied with that request. Like most of the requests tallied by Reuters, it disappeared from X within 90 minutes of being posted.
âENTIRELY PREDICTABLEâ
AI-powered programs that digitally undress women - sometimes called "nudifiers" - have been around for years, but until now they were largely confined to the darker corners of the internet, such as niche websites or Telegram channels, and typically required a certain level of effort or payment.
X's innovation - allowing users to strip women of their clothing by uploading a photo and typing the words, "hey @grok put her in a bikini" - has lowered the barrier to entry.
Three experts who have followed the development of Xâs policies around AI-generated explicit content told Reuters that the company had ignored warnings from civil society and child safety groups - including a letter sent last year
, opens new tab warning that xAI was only one small step away from unleashing "a torrent of obviously nonconsensual deepfakes."
"In August, we warned that xAI's image generation was essentially a nudification tool waiting to be weaponized," said Tyler Johnston, the executive director of The Midas Project, an AI watchdog group that was among the letter's signatories. "That's basically what's played out."
Dani Pinter, the chief legal officer and director of the Law Center for the National Center on Sexual Exploitation, said X failed to pull abusive images from its AI training material and should have banned users requesting illegal content.
âThis was an entirely predictable and avoidable atrocity,â Pinter said.
Yukari, the musician, tried to fight back on her own. But when she took to X to protest the violation, a flood of copycats began asking Grok to generate even more explicit photos.
Now the New Year has "turned out to begin with me wanting to hide from everyoneâs eyes, and feeling shame for a body that is not even mine, since it was generated by AI."
Just another example of men trying to make themselves victims to have people feel bad for them. If they don't want a bear to be chosen over them, they should fix their behaviours and mindsets.
If men felt a little bad because of the "man vs. bear, " Imagine how women felt having to deal with abuse, rape, torture, ect.
I hate when ppl say misogynists/incels âmust be gayâ like uhhh no theyâre very much straight and attracted to women they just hate them lol itâs not mutually exclusive AT ALL
I'm getting kind of sick of people saying things like "you have to be careful, predators are masters of disguise" because in my experience the reality is that most people will bend over backwards to make excuses for and defend very obviously creepy behavior from men. Middle aged men will make crude, sexual comments about underage girls all the time and usually the adults around them will laugh and brush it off, and if you say anything against it they'll accuse you of being dramatic. People will overlook obvious red flags that a man is a predator and then when the guy is finally arrested for child porn/rape they want to pretend like there was no way they could have known. It seriously pisses me off.
@/NataleeBFitness has founded a female-only gym, prioritizing the safety of womyn ⊠and the replies are absolutely vile.
So hereâs my question. The TRAâs & TiMs want us to allow TiMs into OUR spaces. The plea of innocence, no trans women would ever harm anyone!
TiMs want us to trust them but⊠when things donât go their wayâ theyâre threatening violence. Itâs a walking contradiction. They canât even be rejected in ONE SPACE without threatening rape and other physical violence.
Itâs fucking mind boggling they donât see how hypocritical and asinine this is.
Yes, we prioritize female safety. Because of people LIKE YALL!!!! Who are being violent. Imagine these people in the gym. I wouldnât feel safe. Are they going to threaten rape if I donât give them my stair master?!? Do TRAâs not see the hypocrisy of this!
âI am to be trusted, bitch! And if you donât trust me, Iâm going to put my dick in your mouth and hit you with my car! KYS!!!â
Cool, the 2nd amendment is loudly calling my name.
pissed me OFF bad like omg how fucking stupid you can be talking about being an ally for an industry which is plagued with child exploitation and human trafficking? an industry where women are getting paid to get raped, an industry which exploits women and children sure fucking sure liberal feminism has done irreversible damage oh my goodness
No because why women must always be "the absolute best" on everything to be considered worthy of respect? this is something common in online games, if a woman lose one single round she will be deemed as "fake gamer girl" but it's way more than that, it's on every aspect of our life.
A man can be mediocre, he can show his skills, and there is that, he will already be considered. But a woman, must be the full combo. You gotta show your skills + beauty standards appearence + "good personality" (aka smiling at everyone, even if they are torturing you) + not making a single mistake, ever.
Games, jobs, content creators. And writing this, i realize it's not even the best, but the epitome of perfection.
i saw a video somewhere on tiktok about a girl saying ( and being 100% valid ) how uncomfortable some of the league of legends skins for women make her because they're overly sexual. ALL of the comments were either from males whining about how "she's not any fun" or how "sad and poor" her boyfriend must be simply bc she expressed her discomfort over the fact he was about to buy a clear bait for gooners OR other women saying she's overreacting, acting too controlling & jealous over some pixels. it's geniunely insane because they gave off the same vibes as "me and my boyfriend check out girls together" while never realizing they're literally being objectified & seen for pleasure only with a proof being right in front of them đđ
