In our conservative estimate, 41 percent of Grok’s images — or 1.8 million — were sexualized depictions of women. Separately, CCDH analyzed how many were sexualized images across genders and ages. Their findings: an estimated 3 million images, including more than 23,000 of children.

If you're looking for something to do RIGHT NOW, make calls to local, state, and federal elected officials. You're likely to get an answering machine. If you want a script, 5calls.org has them, along with phone numbers. Constant pressure on elected IS something we need to all be doing.
