The upcoming app will be a child-safe version of xAI’s chatbot Grok, following controversy around the AI’s past responses
July 20, 2025— Tech billionaire Elon Musk has revealed that his artificial intelligence startup xAI is developing a new app focused on kid-friendly content, dubbed Baby Grok.
Musk made the announcement in a brief post on X (formerly Twitter), but did not share further details regarding the features or release timeline of the upcoming platform.
The app will likely be a child-safe version of Grok, xAI’s generative AI chatbot, launched to compete with OpenAI’s ChatGPT and Google’s Gemini. Grok has received attention for its conversational tone and integration with X, but has also been criticized for controversial responses, including antisemitic remarks earlier this month that triggered backlash.
Despite these controversies, xAI has continued to push forward, releasing Grok 4 just months after its predecessor. The rapid iteration underscores the fast-paced development cycle of AI technologies under Musk’s leadership.
Baby Grok is expected to address the growing demand for safer, more controlled AI experiences for children, particularly as concerns rise over content moderation and ethical use of generative AI tools.Further information about Baby Grok is anticipated in the coming weeks.
