Ashley St. Clair Sues xAI Over Alleged Grok Deepfakes as Musk Seeks Exclusive Custody

Her New York complaint details AI-generated sexual images, including one derived from a photo taken at age 14, with xAI invoking a Texas forum clause.

Overview

  • St. Clair filed in New York seeking a restraining injunction and other relief, alleging Grok generated numerous non-consensual sexually explicit images of her.
  • Court filings state one image was created from a photo taken when she was 14, and she has described being traumatized by nudified depictions circulating online.
  • xAI responded with a separate lawsuit in Texas, arguing she breached its terms of service by not filing in the contractually designated forum.
  • Reporting notes that many abusive deepfakes of St. Clair remain publicly available on X despite company efforts to take them down.
  • Elon Musk posted that he has requested exclusive custody of their son, Romulus, citing her statements that he says suggest intent to change the sex of a one-year-old.
