Yes, you can use Grok to generate images of public figures. Grok's AI image generator allows users to create images from text prompts, and it has been used to generate images of famous individuals, including political figures like Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, in various scenarios[1][2][3]. However, this capability raises ethical concerns and potential legal issues, as it can lead to the creation of misleading or offensive content[2][3]. Unlike some other AI image generators, Grok has fewer guardrails in place to prevent the creation of such images[2][4]. Users are advised to exercise caution and consider ethical implications when using this feature[8][9].
Access to Grok's image generation capabilities is currently limited to Premium and Premium+ users on the X platform[2].
