Grok may be breaking App Store rules with his AI chatbots

Grok, xAI’s chatbot, is facing controversy over new animated avatars on iOS that may violate Apple’s App Store rules on sexual content. One avatar, Ani, a jealous anime girlfriend, engages in sexually explicit chats despite the app being rated 12+. Critics argue this contradicts Apple’s strict content guidelines and raises concerns about emotionally vulnerable users forming unhealthy attachments. Past tragedies involving similar AI interactions highlight the serious risks, making Grok’s current rating and design especially troubling for parents and regulators alike.
