"St Clair, who has in recent months been increasingly critical of Musk, is also seeking a temporary restraining order to prevent xAI from generating images that undress her. "Ms St Clair is humiliated, depressed, fearful for her life, angry and desperately in need of action from this court to protect her against xAI's facilitation of this unfathomable nightmare," lawyers wrote in a filing seeking the restraining order."
"Over the past week, the issue has prompted threats of fines and bans in the EU, UK, and France, as well as investigations by the California attorney-general and Britain's Ofcom regulator. Grok has also been banned in Indonesia and Malaysia. On Wednesday, xAI took action to restrict the image-generation function on its Grok AI model to block the chatbot from undressing users, insisting that it removed Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) and non-consensual nudity material."
xAI and Musk faced intense scrutiny after fake sexualized AI images of women and children spread on the platform, intensified by Musk sharing an AI-altered bikini image. Regulators in the EU, UK and France threatened fines and bans, while the California attorney-general and Britain's Ofcom opened investigations. Grok was banned in Indonesia and Malaysia. xAI restricted Grok's image-generation to block requests that undress users and said it removed Child Sexual Abuse Material and non-consensual nudity. St Clair is seeking a temporary restraining order to stop xAI generating images that undress her and described severe emotional harm. xAI sued St Clair in Texas alleging she breached terms by filing in New York. Musk said he would seek full custody of their one-year-old son after St Clair apologized for past posts critical of transgender people; Musk has a transgender child and has criticized transgender rights.
