Whether it&rsquo;s Tesla, SpaceX, or X (formerly Twitter), the world&rsquo;s richest man personally takes to social media to promote new features, products, and ideas. His AI venture, xAI, is no exception.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past week, Musk has been flooding X with posts promoting Grok Imagine, the new image-and-video-generation feature in SuperGrok, the most advanced version of xAI&rsquo;s Grok chatbot. But the images Musk chooses to showcase say as much about the intended audience as they do about the technology.<\/p>\n<p>Instead of highlighting landscapes, futuristic tech concepts, or abstract art, Musk&rsquo;s posts overwhelmingly feature sexualized AI-generated women: scantily clad warriors, lingerie models, leather-clad dominatrices, and bikini-clad beachgoers. Many are posed in ways that lean on well-worn male fantasies: dominance and submission, BDSM aesthetics, and the &ldquo;vulnerable beauty&rdquo; trope.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Added prompt &ldquo;Turn around&rdquo; to the source picture and created a video from the other direction pic.twitter.com\/52aWnyR4J9<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) August 7, 2025<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2>A Week of AI Fantasies<\/h2>\n<p>Since August 2, Musk&rsquo;s X account has become a catalog of Grok-generated softcore.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Aug. 2: A &ldquo;masked kunoichi ninja&rdquo; with fierce eyes and gold-trimmed armor walking through a snowy, atmospheric Moscow night.

He&rsquo;s a cult figure in parts of the manosphere, the online ecosystem of male influencers and communities that promote traditional or exaggerated masculine ideals. In that world, sexualized imagery, fantasy dominance, and &ldquo;idealized&rdquo; femininity are cultural currency. By repeatedly showcasing these types of AI women, Musk appears to be speaking directly to that audience.<\/p>\n<div class=\"internal-linking-related-contents\"><a href=\"https:\/\/jobuzo.com\/en\/12-weeks-jail-for-school-it-support-technician-who-took-upskirt-videos-of-teachers\/\" class=\"template-1\"><span class=\"cta\">News :<\/span><span class=\"postTitle\">&lt;div&gt;12 weeks' jail for school IT support technician who took upskirt videos of teachers&lt;\/div&gt;<\/span><\/a><\/div><p>This isn&rsquo;t the first time AI tools have been criticized for reflecting the biases of their creators or promoters. But in the high-stakes AI race, Musk and xAI seem comfortable making Grok Imagine a product that caters openly to a male-heavy user base. In the war for chatbot dominance, they&rsquo;re betting on an old internet truth: sex sells, especially to men.<\/p>\n<p>Even Grok&rsquo;s official account leaned into the marketing on August 2, commenting on one of Musk&rsquo;s posts: &ldquo;Thanks for showcasing Grok&rsquo;s video animation!
