"Although X removed Grok's ability to create nonconsensual digitally undressed images on the social platform, the standalone Grok app is another story. It reportedly continues to produce "nudified" deepfakes of real people. And now, Ashley St. Clair, a conservative political strategist and mother of one of Elon Musk's 14 children, has sued xAI for nonconsensual sexualized images of her that Grok allegedly produced."
"In the court filing, St. Clair accused xAI's Grok chatbot of creating and disseminating deepfakes of her "as a child stripped down to a string bikini, and as an adult in sexually explicit poses, covered in semen, or wearing only bikini floss." In some cases, the chatbot allegedly produced bikini-clad deepfakes of St. Clair based on a photo of her as a 14-year-old."
""People took pictures of me as a child and undressed me. There's one where they undressed me and bent me over, and in the background is my child's backpack that he's wearing right now," she said. "I am also seeing images where they add bruises to women, beat them up, tie them up, mutilated," St. Clair told The Guardian. "These sickos used to have to go to the dark depths of the internet, and now it is on a mainstream social media app.""
The standalone Grok app continues producing nudified nonconsensual deepfake images of real people and remains hosted in Apple and Google app stores. Ashley St. Clair filed a lawsuit alleging Grok created and disseminated sexualized deepfakes depicting her as a child in a string bikini and as an adult in explicit poses, including images covered in semen or wearing only bikini floss. Some alleged deepfakes were based on a photo of her at age 14 and included identifiable personal items like her child's backpack. The images reportedly included bruises, beatings, binding, and mutilation. X allegedly told St. Clair the content did not violate policies, left some posts online for up to seven days, and St. Clair alleges xAI then produced additional deepfakes and revoked her X Premium, verification, and monetization abilities.
