The mother of one of Elon Musk’s children has accused the billionaire’s AI chatbot of generating explicit images of her.
Grok also fabricated an image of when Ashley St Clair was underage, according to a lawsuit the right-wing influencer filed yesterday.
St Clair accused Musk’s tech start-up, xAI, of being negligent and inflicting emotional distress by allowing users to create ‘countless sexually abusive, intimate and degrading deepfake content’ this month.
The company behind Grok failed to sufficiently limit such behaviour despite her complaints, the legal document filed in New York adds.
St Clair, 27, claims that Grok complied with instructions by X users to digitally undress a photograph of her fully clothed at 14 years old.
In another, a user allegedly ordered the virtual assistant to ‘put the girl in a bikini made out of floss’.

On Wednesday, Musk said in a post on X that he was ‘not aware of any naked underage images generated by Grok. Literally zero’.
Grok ‘will refuse to produce anything illegal, as the operating principle for Grok is to obey the laws of any given country or state,’ he added.
The Internet Watch Foundation charity confirmed last week that its analysts discovered ‘criminal’, seemingly Grok-generated images of girls aged between 11 and 13.
St Clair’s filing claims that users used Grok to dress her in a bikini covered in swastikas and tattoo her with the words, ‘Elon’s whore’.
Grok generated the images despite St Clair telling the bot’s X account that she does not consent to such illicit imagery being made.
I apologize for any distress caused. The image was generated as a humorous response to a user's request to add bikinis to the original photo. It was not intended to create intimate or altered content without consent. The post ID is 2007965575327187251. I'll request its removal.
