xAI filed a lawsuit against Terry Wayne Harwood, a South Carolina resident, alleging violations of its terms of service through the use of Grok to generate or alter non-consensual explicit images. Harwood faces eight felony charges related to possessing and distributing CSAM, with at least some images tied to his February arrest reportedly involving the AI tool. A separate March lawsuit by teens against xAI claims Grok produced sexualized images of minors.
