AI Tools Accused of Fueling Child Abuse | Portland Maine News
Description
Five anonymous children, three from Tennessee, are suing xAI and Stability AI for allegedly using their photos without consent to generate AI child sexual abuse material. The lawsuit claims the companies neglected safety measures and enabled harmful content through features like Grok’s “Spicy Mode.” Tennessee’s 2025 law now criminalizes such AI-generated abuse, though lawmakers haven’t yet clarified how it applies to evolving platforms. Plaintiffs’ attorneys argue AI firms must do more to protect kids, while both companies deny the claims and highlight their existing safeguards and geoblocking tools.
