No, Elon regularly posts Grok generated images of a sexualized female anime character, and has been doing so before the new feature Grok launched that lets everyone undress female users of X. The lapse is intentional to see what they can get away with. Just like when Musk recently suggested that remigration (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remigration), also known as ethnic cleansing, is a good thing.

In both cases, they know better because they aren’t dumb. They see to be reigned in.
