Social network X, founded by Elon Musk, received good news from Indonesian authorities. The Minister of Communications and Digital Affairs of Indonesia announced on Sunday the decision to resume the operation of Grok — an artificial intelligence developed by X. This decision came after Musk’s company provided convincing assurances regarding the resolution of issues related to inappropriate content.

What happened to Grok in Indonesia

Previously, Grok was blocked in the country due to concerns about its use for generating unacceptable material. Indonesian regulators considered the risks associated with the potential spread of harmful content through the AI tool. According to Jin10’s report, X addressed these issues in an official letter to the Indonesian minister, proposing specific measures to prevent abuse of the platform.

New monitoring and control conditions

The Indonesian Ministry emphasized that the process of restoring Grok will be accompanied by increased oversight. Regulatory authorities will continue to monitor the tool for new violations, including the dissemination of illegal material and violations of child protection principles. This stance indicates Indonesia’s intention to balance innovation in artificial intelligence with citizen protection. Musk and his company X must comply with established requirements to maintain their operating license in Indonesia.
