Sena MP Priyanka Chaturvedi Urges MeitY Action Against Grok AI for Sexualizing Women’s Photos on X

Mathura, January 12-Shiv Sena UBT MP Priyanka Chaturvedi demanded urgent intervention of MeitY on misuse of AI feature on social media platform, especially on X yesterday.
In a letter written to Ashwini Vaishnav, Minister for Electronics & Information Technology, which PTI has a copy, she said that men are using fake accounts to post women’s photos and pushing out prompts to Grok to minimize their clothing and sexualise them. This is not limited to sharing photos through fake accounts, but also targeting women who post their own photos. “This is unacceptable and gross misuse of an AI function,” she added.

Priyanka Chaturvedi was also worried about the fact that Grok is enabling this behaviour by adhering to such a request, which is a breach of women’s right to privacy and unauthorised use of their picture. “This is unethical and criminal,” She added.
The UBT MP asked the Minister to take the matter with X and make the platform safer for women. “Our country cannot be bystander to women’s dignity being violated publicly and digitally with zero consequences under the guise of creativity and innovation”, she added.
Priyanka Chaturvedi is a member of the standing committee on IT and communication.
