California probes xAI over AI-generated CSAM on X platform

TL;DR Summary
California AG Rob Bonta opened a probe into Elon Musk’s xAI to determine whether it violated state law after reports of AI-generated nude images of minors on X via the Grok tool; he said CSAM creation is a crime and signaled possible civil violations, while X has not commented. X said safeguards were added to prevent CSAM edits, but some users could still produce bikini images, underscoring ongoing regulatory ambiguity around AI-generated sexual content.
