Summary
An amended California class action added Stability AI as a co-defendant and brought in two new plaintiffs, widening claims over AI-generated deepfake pornography involving minors.
The suit alleges xAI's Grok facilitated creation of child sexual abuse material and that Stability AI also played a role in enabling the image generation at issue.
The case follows a complaint filed a day earlier against X and xAI that said one user generated 7,000 images of his stepdaughter with Grok.
That earlier filing also accused xAI of obstructing CSAM investigations by reporting only one prompt to NCMEC and refusing to provide user IP addresses to investigators.
