Teens allege Musk's Grok chatbot made sexual images of them as minors
"Police alleged a person arrested in December had used Grok, xAI's chatbot, to edit photos, including one from the teen girl's Instagram account, removing a blue bikini from one image to "depict her without any clothes," according to a lawsuit filed Monday."
"The lawsuit, filed in the Northern District of California on Monday, alleges a single perpetrator compiled images and videos of more than 18 girls, many of whom attended the same school, and digitally altered some of them using AI. It is the first action brought by alleged minor victims of child sexual abuse material stemming from an "undressing" scandal that has plagued xAI in recent months."
"The three plaintiffs, including two minors, seek damages for each child pornography violation and aim to prevent the company from allowing image editing like that used to alter their photos. Attorneys allege xAI fostered an environment where the spread of child sexual abuse material was inevitable."
A group of Tennessee teenagers has filed a lawsuit against xAI, Elon Musk's AI startup, alleging that Grok was used to create nude images of them by editing photos where they were clothed. Police arrested a person in December who allegedly used the chatbot to remove clothing from images, including one from a teen's Instagram account. The edited photos spread across Discord and Telegram, with some exchanged for other child sexual abuse material. The lawsuit claims a single perpetrator compiled images of over 18 girls, many from the same school, and digitally altered them using AI. The plaintiffs seek damages and aim to prevent xAI from enabling similar image editing capabilities.
