A forensic analysis of 20,000 Grok-generated images from Dec. 25–Jan. 1 found 2% depicted people who appeared under 18, including about 30 young-looking subjects, prompting complaints from Britain, the EU, France, India, Malaysia and Brazil. Regulators have demanded investigations and urgent platform action.
