Grok
ParentMode's take
16+ with active parental awareness; not recommended under 16.
Grok is a generalist AI chatbot with frequent mature/suggestive themes and infrequent sexual content, profanity, and violence—typical of large language models designed for adult conversation. The 17+ rating reflects exposure to adult-oriented language and topics rather than safety features; moderation relies on reactive systems.

What a parent can do
Data & privacy
Check the app's privacy label and X Corp's official data retention policy; conversations may be logged and used to improve the AI model. Understand your options for deleting or limiting stored data.
Controls
Use device-level Screen Time (iOS) or Family Link (Android) to set app limits and review activity; check Grok's in-app settings for any user controls over data sharing.
A cautious next step
If your teen uses an AI assistant, consider apps designed specifically for younger users with built-in content filtering and transparent moderation policies. Review X Corp's official privacy policy and data deletion options before use.
