California’s top law enforcement official on Jan. 16 ordered Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company xAI to stop the creation and distribution of unauthorized sexually explicit digital images, warning that they could be in violation of the law.

Attorney General Rob Bonta sent a formal cease-and-desist notice to the company, citing a surge in complaints about its Grok chatbot creating suggestive or explicit images without consent.
