AI chatbots to face UK safety rules after outcry over Grok

Providers of chatbots will be responsible for preventing them from generating illegal or harmful content, extending rules that currently apply only to content shared between users on social media. It follows an international backlash against Grok for letting people create and share sexualised pictures of women and children using simple text prompts. "The new measures announced today include crackdown on vile illegal content created by AI," Prime Minister Keir Starmer said in a statement ahead of a speech on the matter Monday.
