Condemnation of Elon Musk’s AI chatbot reached ‘tipping point’ after French raid, Australia’s eSafety chief says

Global regulatory scrutiny of Elon Musk's social media platform X is intensifying, according to Australia's eSafety commissioner. This increased focus follows a raid on X's offices in France on Tuesday, conducted as part of an investigation into alleged offenses including complicity in the possession and distribution of child abuse images, violation of image rights through sexualized deepfakes, and denial of crimes against humanity. Several countries, including Australia, are already investigating X over Grok-produced sexualized deepfakes. The eSafety commissioner believes this recent raid represents a "tipping point" in the condemnation of X and its AI chatbot.
