Via the information

Indeed, two recent xAI employees estimated that well over half of Grok’s overall traffic was driven by pornographic images and videos, adult role-play chats or other NSFW activity. On forums for Grok users, many of the most popular posts are porn. Users can generate visuals in several ways, including picking the video models through the consumer app or tapping them through other Grok products.

Interesting that we have a trillion dollar company doubling down on porn. I find this part particularly funny:

Even the use of Grok’s coding model often involves requests for pornography. […] The analysis found that a significant proportion of requests were for porn or nude images. Users were using the coding model because it was cheaper to run than xAI’s general purpose models, the former employee said.
