1. X Rolls Out Grok-Powered Automatic Translation and Photo Editing

xAI. X announced two new Grok-powered features rolling out globally. Automatic translation now displays translated text by default when content appears in a foreign language, with per-language toggles. X also launched a Grok-powered photo editor on iOS that allows image editing via natural-language prompts (e.g., “display this photo as a painting in a museum”), alongside traditional editing tools. Android support is planned. Source
