X is Netherlandsgoing in even moreon AI.

A new AI image generator called Aurora started rolling out for X users this weekend, per TechCrunch. Aurora is part of the Grok AI tab along the bottom of the X app, and can generate realistic images from written prompts. The weirdest part is that Aurora appears to have no guardrails around creating photo-realistic images of real people. I was able to create an image of the upcoming president-to-be covered in cheese, for example.

It won't do anything nude, but it'll do more than the average AI image generator because most mainstream ones will prevent users from including copyrighted works or real people in their prompts.X's Grok AI has had image creation capabilities for a while now, but Aurora appears to be a new creation engine from the previous one. It's also not clear where exactly it came from, who exactly made it, and what exactly it's been trained on. It's been reported in the past that the Grok chatbot trains off of user data, so it's possible Aurora does, too.

Try it if you want, or don't. The world is your oyster.
