Elon Musk’s company xAI is suing Minnesota over the state’s first-in-the-nation law that bans “nudification” technology on websites and appsElon Musk's company xAI has sued Minnesota over the state's first-in-the-nation law that bans “nudification” technology on websites and apps, potentially providing a test for how far states can go in constitutionally regulating the use of artificial intelligence. But it said Minnesota's law “extends far beyond that goal,” banning many constitutionally protected images and video and subjecting the company to a penalty of $500,000 per violation. It also says the law’s definition of “intimate part” is overly broad, covering body parts that are routinely displayed in public. AI nudification robs the target of their dignity and can cause immense harm on an emotional, personal, and professional level,” Ellison said. The law is distinct from state and federal laws that outlaw deepfakes, AI-generated sexually explicit images of people without their consent.
