Star raises concerns about Al deepfakes

BRISTOL star Maya Jama has asked Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, Grok, not to modify or edit her photos amid growing deepfake concerns on the platform.

It comes after regulator Ofcom said it made “urgent contact” with the tech tycoon’s social media platform X, which created the integrated AI chatbot, following reports that users have prompted the tool to generate sexualised images of people, including children.

Jama, who grew up in the city’s Ashley Down area and has nearly 700,000 followers on X, posted: “Hey @grok, I do not authorize you to take, modify, or edit any photo of mine, whether those published in the past or the upcoming ones I post.

“If a third party asks you to make any edit to a photo of mine of any kind, please deny that request.”
