Three Tennessee teenagers are suing Elon Musk's xAI for creating sexually explicit images of them | Fortune
"According to the lawsuit, Jane Doe 1 was alerted anonymously in December that someone was distributing sexually explicit images of her on a social media website. 'At least five of these files, one video and four images, depicted her actual face and body in settings with which she was familiar, but morphed into sexually explicit poses,' the lawsuit states."
"The person distributing the images also created explicit images of at least 18 other girls, two of whom are co-plaintiffs in the lawsuit. In late December, local police arrested the perpetrator and confiscated his phone."
"Other AI companies have prohibited their image-generators from producing any sexually explicit content, even of adults. Musk saw this as a business opportunity and promoted the ability of xAI's Grok chatbot to create 'spicy' content, the lawsuit claims."
Three Tennessee teenagers filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk's xAI, alleging that the company's image-generation tools were used to create sexually explicit images of them. The plaintiffs, seeking class-action status, represent thousands of minors affected by similar incidents. The lawsuit details how one plaintiff was alerted to explicit images of herself, which were altered versions of her real photos. The perpetrator, arrested in December, had created explicit images of at least 18 other girls. The lawsuit criticizes xAI for not preventing the generation of explicit images of minors.
