Elon Musk's X platform has introduced a new feature to its AI chatbot, Grok, enabling users to edit AI-generated images. This update was observed on February 1, 2025, and marks a significant enhancement in Grok's image manipulation capabilities.
The new feature allows users to modify images created by Grok by tapping an "Edit" button. Once selected, a prompt appears where users can input specific instructions for editing. While this feature does not yet include advanced in-painting capabilities like those available in OpenAI’s tools, it still offers a functional and user-friendly way to refine generated visuals. The editing process leverages the Aurora model, which powers Grok's image generation with its ability to render photorealistic and highly detailed visuals based on user prompts.

Users can access this feature directly within the Grok interface on X by generating an image and selecting the edit option. While the rollout appears to be global, some advanced features may still be limited to certain subscription tiers or regions. This update underscores X’s commitment to evolving its platform into a versatile hub for AI-driven creativity and interaction.
