Key point

A legal battle continues as xAI asks a court to strip anonymity from victims of deepfake pornography made using Grok.

Details

xAI has requested that a court disclose the identities of four victims of fake pornography generated using Grok. The victims are pleading to maintain their anonymity, citing concerns over further attacks and doxxing that could occur if their real names are revealed.

Their legal team criticized xAI for undressing the victims and now trying to threaten them by stripping away their anonymity through legal proceedings as well.

According to data from the Center for Countering Digital Hate, the Grok chatbot was found to have been used to generate approximately 3 million pornographic images in just 11 days. Legal experts warned that this request for identity disclosure could serve as a pressure tactic to make the victims abandon their lawsuit.
