Ashley St. Clair, who is the mother of one of Elon Musk’s children, is contemplating a lawsuit for revenge porn after the billionaire’s AI chatbot, Grok, started producing sexual deepfake images of her. She has stated that she is “not afraid of anyone.”
The 27-year-old influencer has accused the “predatory” social media platform of ignoring her repeated requests to take down numerous inappropriate images that began surfacing last week.
“I’m not afraid of anyone,” St. Clair told the London Times, declaring that she was ready for a battle.
“This isn’t just about punishing X or Elon; it’s about showing that no one should choose comfort over doing what’s right,” she added.
Since Grok began creating a significant number of unsettling and explicit images of women and minors, Musk’s company has faced substantial criticism.
St. Clair mentioned that the troubling AI-generated images of her initially featured her in revealing swimsuits but escalated to more explicit content.
“I found a 14-year-old photo of myself that had been manipulated to show me without clothes or just in a tiny bikini,” she said.
She claimed to have pleaded with X to remove the images, only to have her Blue Tick Premium account allegedly revoked in retaliation.
St. Clair, who relies on memberships for her income, also criticized Trump, suggesting he wouldn’t confront Musk due to their friendship.
After revealing last year that she gave birth to Musk’s thirteenth child, St. Clair is looking into a lawsuit in New York concerning the images, which may be classified as revenge porn under the U.S. Take It Down law.
She also expressed that Musk should offer an apology.
“The atmosphere created by the owners suggested that X was this town square. You can’t behave in such a publicly indecent manner in any town square— you’d get arrested and probably face restrictions near schools. But is it acceptable just because a robot is behind it?” she questioned.
“At the very least, Musk could say, ‘I’m truly sorry that my robot produced child pornography and material that harms women. I regret that people have been hurt by this.’ But it seems no one is pressing him for answers regarding the serious consequences of his actions.”
X, facing scrutiny from regulators over the images, responded last month by limiting photo editing features to paying members and warning users that those requesting illegal content would face repercussions.
Nonetheless, Britain’s online regulator has launched a formal investigation into the Grok chatbot incident amid concerns that the images may be considered child pornography.
Additionally, the company is under a separate investigation by the European Commission, as authorities look into potential violations of the EU’s stringent online safety regulations.
