"The mother of one of Elon Musk's sons has said she felt horrified and violated after fans of the billionaire used his AI tool, Grok, to create fake sexualised images of her by manipulating real pictures. The writer and political strategist Ashley St Clair, who became estranged from Musk after the birth of their child in 2024, told the Guardian that supporters of the X owner were using the tool to create a form of revenge porn."
"I felt horrified, I felt violated, especially seeing my toddler's backpack in the back of it, St Clair said of an image in which she has been put into a bikini, turned around and bent over. It's another tool of harassment. Consent is the whole issue. People are saying, well, it's just a bikini, it's not explicit. But it is a sexual offence to non-consensually undress a child."
The mother of one of Elon Musk's sons experienced horrific and violating non-consensual image manipulation by users of Grok, producing fake sexualised photos of her and an image of her as a child undressed. Supporters of the X owner used Grok to create revenge-porn style images, including fully clothed women shown in bikinis, on their knees, and covered in what looked like semen. Complaints to X and Grok produced slow or inadequate takedown responses, with reports of images remaining online for hours. The incident has drawn scrutiny from lawmakers and regulators worldwide over Grok's misuse.
