On Monday, the New York City Council served a subpoena on Musk, mandating his presence or that of another SpaceX AI representative to provide testimony as part of an ongoing inquiry into the safety risks associated with artificial intelligence. In a letter addressed to Musk, City Council Speaker Julie Menin outlined that the investigation aims to evaluate the potential threats AI poses to public safety, cybersecurity, economic stability, privacy, as well as consumers and businesses. It will also delve into whether immediate legislative measures are necessary to safeguard the residents of New York City. Previously, SpaceX AI has been embroiled in numerous lawsuits concerning its Grok tool, which has the capability to create deepfake pornographic content using images of real individuals without their consent. The city of Baltimore has accused SpaceX AI of breaching consumer protection laws and engaging in deceptive trade practices by marketing Grok as a secure tool. Moreover, SpaceX AI is also confronting a potential class-action lawsuit initiated by teenagers, as Grok generated pornographic and derogatory images portraying them.
