SpaceX-owned xAI, the developer of Grok, sued Minnesota AG to challenge a law coming into effect in the state that will ban "nudify" apps, use of these AI image generators to make non-consenting intimate images, aka AI deepfake porn of real people including minors. www.cnbc.com/2026/07/28/s...

If you run a platform that creates 100,000 nude deep fakes, the platform should be driven into the ground by fines, and the people running it should go to jail. And if you can't make the platform not do those things, you are morally obligated to shut it down until you can control it.
