Summary
Elon Musk's artificial intelligence company xAI has filed a lawsuit challenging Minnesota's new law banning 'nudification' technology, arguing it violates the First Amendment right to free speech. The law, signed by Governor Tim Walz and taking effect Saturday, prohibits apps and websites that can create fake, sexualized images. xAI claims the law extends far beyond its goal of preventing nonconsensual deepfakes, banning many constitutionally protected images and videos and subjecting the company to a $500,000 penalty per violation. The lawsuit distinguishes Minnesota's law from other state and federal laws that specifically target AI-generated sexually explicit images without consent.
