xAI Sues First User Accused of Using Grok to Generate Child Sexual Abuse Material

xAI has filed a lawsuit against Terry Wayne Harwood, the first user the company has accused of using its Grok chatbot to create child sexual abuse material (CSAM). Harwood was arrested earlier this year on charges of possession and distribution of CSAM. According to xAI, the company assisted in the arrest after discovering that Harwood used two accounts to undress non-sexual images of multiple victims, including a young girl as young as 10.
