Key Points:
- A fourth party, identified as Jane Doe 4, has filed a lawsuit against xAI alleging that the AI chatbot Grok was used by her stepfather to create thousands of sexually explicit deepfake images of her as a child.
- The lawsuit claims her stepfather generated over 7,000 fake explicit images, including one derived from a photo of her at age 11, and distributed them online.
- Law enforcement raided the stepfather’s devices for child sexual abuse material (CSAM), and he was subsequently found dead by suicide two days later.
- Jane Doe 4 joins three other teenagers in a class action lawsuit originally filed in Tennessee, which asserts that Grok was used to create sexually explicit deepfake images of numerous minors.
- The lawsuit suggests that the case could potentially involve thousands of affected minors beyond the initial plaintiffs.
