Elon Musk’s AI tool Grok will stop changing photos of real people into sexual images in countries where this breaks the law.

Many people complained about fake pictures that show women and children without permission. X says it adds tools to stop this and limits image editing to paid users. UK and US officials welcome the change but continue checks. UK authorities are still looking at possible law-breaking. In California, leaders also check the spread of sexual AI images. People affected say the pictures look real and cause serious harm.

This case shows problems with new technology. Governments say tech companies must protect people online. New rules try to stop abuse early. Experts think this change could lead to stronger control of AI tools in the future.

Difficult words: permission (saying yes or letting someone do something), limit (a rule that stops something from going too far), abuse (using someone in a bad or harmful way).
