X has introduced a new feature that makes it slightly harder for other users to manipulate your uploaded images with the Grok chatbot. As reported by Social Media Today and verified by The Verge, a new toggle within the image upload settings on the X iOS appsays it can "block modifications by Grok" when enabled. But it doesn't actually prevent Grok from editing your photos.
