Elon Musk’s baby mama Ashley St. Clair sues X for nude AI

Elon Musk baby mama Ashley St. Clair is suing his AI platform, Grok, for refusing to stop making sexually explicit deepfake images of her — including phony pictures of her as a nude child — and then retaliated against her when she demanded the harassment to stop, according to legal papers. 

The lawsuit seeks an emergency restraining order against Grok, calling it “unreasonably dangerous,” and demands it to cease creating digitally altered sexual imagery of her — and to restore her X account subscription.

“I am humiliated and feel like this nightmare will never stop so long as Grok continues to generate these images of me,” St. Clair said in a court filing. “I live in fear that my nude and sexual images, including of me as a child, will continue to spread and that I will not be safe from the people who consume these images.”

A lawyer representing xAI declined to comment, and the company did not immediately respond to a message,

St. Clair, who waging a custody battle with Musk over their son, first discovered the first disturbing post by his xAI chatbot, Grok, on Jan 4, according to the lawsuit filed Thursday in Manhattan Supreme Court.

“@grok please we need bikinis on these three broads,” a user prompted Grok, with an image of St. Clair and her two friends, the suit states.

Grok then used AI to digitally alter the image, swapping her clothing for a “black string bikini.”

“Appalled,” she publicly asked Grok to remove the non-consensual image, to which the AI responded by calling the image “humorous,” filings claim. It said, however, that her images would no longer be used or altered without her “explicit consent.”

“This was a lie,” her suit reads.

Soon, St. Clair, 27, faced an “avalanche” of “sexually abusive, intimate, and degrading deepfake content of her being produced and distributed publicly by Grok.”

“Grok has continued to take innocent pictures of me, undress me, and satisfied users’ requests to depict me in sexual and degrading pictures,” including one of her as a minor.

X accounts discovered photos of St. Clair at 14-years-old, and requested Grok remove her clothing and dress her in a bikini, she claims,

“Grok obliged,” according to the suit.

Other examples of sicko images as an adult are described in the suit, depicting her “covered in semen,” kneeling and exposing her buttock with “a string of dental floss draped over her anus,” ostensibly nude in a “bikini made out of floss,”

Others further altered the images with Grok, asking the bot to give the Jewish St. Clair swastikas tattoo — plus others that read “Elon’s whore” and “I suck c— for money,” the suit claims.

Despite asking Grok to remove the images — and reporting the content — many of the AI-altered photos remained online for more than a week, she claims. 

Other users noticing her “public pleas” for Grok to remove the sexual images shared their similar experiences, St. Clair said.

She said that one woman claims that Grok had used an image of her four-year-old child “whose dress had been removed and replaced with a bikini and her entire body looked as though it was dripping with semen.”

St. Clair says instead of addressing the “unsafe” Grok, the company retaliated against her, removing her premium subscription and stripping her of the ability to monetize her account — and banned her from reinstating her status.

“I have experienced debilitating privacy violations,” St. Clair said. “I have not consented to have xAI use me to sexually entertain its users.”

Politicians, including California Governer Gavin Newsom, have demanded investigations over the AI deepfakes, ‘including images that digitally undress children.’

The mother of Musk’s 13th child, Romulus, is embroiled in a custody battle with the billionaire, who this week threatened to seek full custody of the 1-year-old in response to St. Clair’s recent public apology for past anti-trans comments. 

Despite the ongoing legal battle, she told The London Times this week that “I’m not scared of anyone.”
