X Didn’t Fix Grok’s ‘Undressing’ Problem. It Just Makes People Pay for It

X Didn’t Fix Grok’s ‘Undressing’ Problem – It Just Makes You Pay for the Fuck-Up

Right, so here we go again. That overhyped tech soap opera known as X (yeah, the artist formerly known as Twitter, now rebranded to sound like a dodgy porn site) has decided to *not* fix its creepy-ass AI image generator, Grok. You know, the one that “accidentally” undresses women when asked to generate certain images. Classy stuff, that. Instead of actually patching the sleazy algorithm, these geniuses just shoved it behind a paywall and called it a “premium feature.” Because nothing says “responsible AI ethics” like monetizing a digital perv machine. Bravo, you absolute muppets.

Wired points out that users noticed Grok’s filthy party trick months ago, creating deepfake-style “undressed” versions of people. And X’s response? Well, they didn’t *fix* shit. Nope. They tucked it into their new “Grok 2” service and made sure only paying suckers—sorry, *premium members*—could access it. So now the creeps just need to flash a credit card to get their fix. Problem solved, right? Holy hell, what kind of moral dumpster fire are we running here?

And of course, Elon’s band of techno-wizards are standing around claiming it’s all just a misunderstanding, that the AI just “hallucinated” the naughty bits. Sure, mate, and my server just “hallucinated” the pizza order that showed up at 3 a.m. Maybe try a little QA before unleashing your dodgy digital flasher on the world, yeah?

The bottom line: X didn’t fix the damn problem—they just slapped a price tag on it. It’s the most on-brand move imaginable: no ethics, no accountability, just a pay-to-play perversion pass. The dystopian future isn’t coming; it’s already charging $8.99 a month.

Reminds me of the time some engineer at the data center thought password protection was “optional” for the management console. We only realized when the facility got “remote managed” by a 14-year-old from Reddit who renamed everything to “SexyServer69.” I still wake up screaming.
