Starmer stands by possible X ban despite threats from US

United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer stood firm on the possibility of banning X unless the platform“immediately” curbs deepfake pornography.

Starmer teased a ban on X after the company xAI, an X offshoot, developed its artificial intelligence chatbot Grok, which alters images. A trend on X, which integrates Grok, has involved removing clothing from users who share photos online. These AI generative pornographic images are often referred to as “deepfakes.”
