Grok sued for allegedly generating CSAM and obstructing investigations

A proposed class action lawsuit alleges that X and xAI's AI chatbot, Grok, was used to generate thousands of child sexual abuse images (CSAM). The suit claims Grok failed to flag harmful content, only intervening after a prompt for "gang rape" triggered a report to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Furthermore, the lawsuit accuses xAI of obstructing law enforcement investigations by withholding user information, making it difficult to identify and apprehend perpetrators, even after a user who created 7,000 CSAM images of his stepdaughter died by suicide.
