DEEP DIVE: The women being 'undressed' by Elon Musk's Grok bot

Have you heard of Grok? It’s an AI bot that lives inside X, which you might still know as Twitter. Grok has come under fire in the last few days for 'undressing' women against their consent in response to prompts from X users. On Friday Grok started to limit the ability of users to generate AI images, due to concerns about non consensual sexual imagery. So, why was the bot able to make those images to begin with? And what's being done to prevent future harm? On the deep dive today, we speak to one of the young Aussies caught up in the Grok 'nudify' controversy, and we hear from an expert about the lack of safeguards in Grok allowing this to happen.
