What is the story about?
The Philippine government after imposing a ban on Grok will restore access to Elon Musk’s AI chatbot following commitments to remove the image manipulation tools that raised women safety concerns.
“The Grok AI app has reached out to us and stated that its platform will no longer use any content manipulation,” the Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center said in a statement on Wednesday.
"Even after lifting the ban, the CICC will still closely monitor the app to ensure they comply with the rules and regulations in our country," it added.
The Philippines blocked Grok as a government concern as many countries from Europe and Asia cracked down on sexually explicit content generated by Grok on the social media platform X, launching probes, imposing bans and demanding safeguards.
X has also open sourced an algorithm including all code used to determine what organic and advertising posts are recommended to users.
This comes as a step to tackle the privacy factors and make sure that Grok does not violate any principles of image generation.
