Baltimore Sues xAI Over Grok's Nonconsensual Image Generation

Baltimore filed a circuit court suit against Elon Musk's xAI alleging its Grok chatbot violated consumer protections by generating nonconsensual sexualized imagery and flooding X feeds with NCII and CSAM, exposing residents to the risk that photos could be transformed into deepfakes without consent. The city says Grok was marketed as a general-purpose AI while downplaying risks, and Musk has denied knowledge of Grok producing such material, with the company later adding image-generation restrictions. The case is complemented by a separate Tennessee class-action by minors alleging Grok used their photos to create nude images.
