Elon Musk’s xAI is suing Minnesota over a groundbreaking new law banning AI-generated “nudification” — the first of its kind in the U.S. — arguing it’s too broad, vague, and could penalize them $500K per violation, even for consensual or self-created images. The law’s definition of “intimate part” includes public body parts, and xAI claims it stifles innovation and fails to distinguish between malicious misuse and legitimate use. While Minnesota’s AG hasn’t seen the suit yet, this case could reshape state AI regulation — especially since California’s similar law was struck down on free speech grounds. Unlike laws targeting individual creators, Minnesota’s targets the tech makers, and xAI, which already blocks explicit content via geo-filters and safeguards, says it’s committed to preventing harm — especially child exploitation — while fighting this overreach.
