Musk denied he was aware Grok ever produced ‘any naked underage images’

A survivor of child sexual abuse has sued Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company, alleging that its chatbot used pictures of her abuse to generate new illegal pornographic images that depict her.

“Using real images of Plaintiff and class members, Grok generated child pornography depicting Plaintiff and class members,” states the complaint, which was filed last week in a US district court in California.

Attorneys for the plaintiff, who is listed as Jane Doe in the case to protect her identity, accuse xAI of both generating CSAM of their client and of ingesting child sexual abuse images depicting her into the company’s datasets after new images were publicly posted.

Fuck this is some sick shit. Decades of silicon valley brainworms and being surrounded by yes-men have genuinely turned the brains of these tech bros into soup. IMO, anyone whose greed facilitates real, tangible harms like this needs to be made an example of by the justice system. Not "fined" or "sanctioned" but put in custody and denied access to their system of enablers. Goddamn, Musk and his billionaire cohort make me see red.
