Musk denied he was aware Grok ever produced ‘any naked underage images’
A survivor of child sexual abuse has sued Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company, alleging that its chatbot used pictures of her abuse to generate new illegal pornographic images that depict her.
“Using real images of Plaintiff and class members, Grok generated child pornography depicting Plaintiff and class members,” states the complaint, which was filed last week in a US district court in California.
Attorneys for the plaintiff, who is listed as Jane Doe in the case to protect her identity, accuse xAI of both generating CSAM of their client and of ingesting child sexual abuse images depicting her into the company’s datasets after new images were publicly posted.
These models are overtrained. It’s incredibly likely the CSAM is “baked in” there somewhere, plus it’s abstraction in tokens and whatnot. There just needs to be a way to prove it mathematically or logically. That would be a good way to pivot into other things like copyright- if you’re a capitalist or something.
If we take some of the extreme AGI claims seriously, they’re all like CSAM experts, but don’t talk about it because they’re polite. That’s weird right?
