Elon Musk’s xAI has launched Grok-2 and Grok-2 mini in beta, introducing image generation directly on the X platform. Currently available to Premium users, Grok-2 offers enhanced reasoning and coding capabilities. However, concerns are rising as the AI lacks guardrails for creating images of political figures, potentially fueling misinformation as the U.S. election approaches. xAI plans to integrate Grok-2 into X’s search and reply functions soon.
