So what exactly did you stand up and say?

What I did was I talked about the need for the government to accelerate its ban on nudification apps, which it did. So the then secretary of state for science, innovation and technology, Liz Kendall, said that she was going to bring that ban into law through the Crime and Policing Act, which she did.

But I also said that it was very important that we went further than that, because, of course, Grok itself is not a sole-purpose nudification tool. It has a general use, and therefore we needed to bring all AI chatbots under the auspices of the Online Safety Act. That is also what eventually happened in the Crime and Policing Act, and we’re now waiting until that legislation comes into effect. There’s got to be a consultation, I understand, before it does.

So technically another Grok could happen in this period, but in the future there would be much stronger measures that we could take against tools like Grok creating nudification content.

So that’s a really positive outcome of your interjection in Parliament, but what else happened as a result of you standing up?

Well, one of the things that happened was that I posted on social media saying that Elon Musk should stop Grok from being able to do this.

And then, of course, I became a victim of the same trend. So Grok put this woman in a bikini. And most of the images were sort of pornified, I would say. They weren’t nude images, but they were me with inflated boobs in a bikini.

Then people tried to make it funny, I guess, by putting a swastika on me or hammer and sickles. Or making me pregnant with quintuplets and putting me in a kitchen. Because of course that’s the only use for women—birthing and making dinner. But the really disturbing one was a video of me being surrounded by a group of men, chloroformed over my mouth, and then I fall backwards onto a chair. Then my skirts are lifted up. So no nudity, but clearly the next frame is meant to be a sexual assault. So it was really distressing and disturbing.
