Philippines to block Elon Musk’s Grok AI, joining Southeast Asian peers
The Philippines said Thursday it plans to block Elon Musk's Grok "by tonight," joining Southeast Asian neighbours Malaysia and Indonesia in barring access to the chatbot.
Representative Lisa McClain's husband purchased between $100,001 and $250,000 in private stocks of xAI on December 15, 2025.
The announcement comes just days after Grok drew global outcry and scrutiny for generating highly sexualized deepfake images of people without their consent.
Grok, the controversial AI chatbot native to Elon Musk's X, is creating an "unprecedented" number of non-consensual, lewd images on an hourly basis, according to a third-party analysis reviewed by Bloomberg. Musk's xAI introduced Grok in late 2023, but the chatbot's so-called "spicy mode" didn't debut until last August.
Elon Musk’s X is trying to stop people using its AI chatbot Grok to undress women amid intensifying outrage and legal scrutiny over the deluge of nonconsensual sexual deepfakes flooding the site. It’s not trying very hard: it took us less than a minute to get around its latest attempt to rein in the chatbot.
