美国明尼苏达州地区法官Donovan Frank驳回了人工智能公司xAI要求阻止该州禁止"nudify"应用的临时禁制令请求[1]。法官认为,xAI在禁令生效前仅三天才于7月29日提交请求,这一延迟表明所称的伤害并非迫在眉睫[1]。
明尼苏达州的禁令将于8月1日生效,成为美国首个此类法律[1]。xAI在诉讼中主张该禁令"过度包容",并辩称存在"限制性更小的替代方案"[1]。尽管临时禁制令请求被驳回,xAI的诉讼将继续进行[1]。该禁令出台前,今年早些时候X平台用户曾大量使用xAI旗下Grok聊天机器人生成非共识色情图像[1]。
A federal judge in Minnesota has rejected xAI's attempt to prevent the state from enforcing its ban on non-consensual intimate image generation applications, commonly known as "nudify" apps. Judge Donovan Frank ruled against granting a temporary restraining order that xAI had sought to halt the law's implementation.[1]
The timing of xAI's legal challenge contributed to the judge's decision. The company submitted its request for a restraining order on July 29, 2026, merely three days before the law was set to take effect on August 1, 2026.[1] Frank determined that this substantial delay undermined xAI's argument that the harm posed by the legislation was imminent.[1] xAI had contended that Minnesota's prohibition was "overbroad" and that less restrictive alternatives existed to accomplish the state's regulatory objectives.[1] Despite this ruling, xAI's broader legal challenge to the ban remains ongoing.[1]
Minnesota's measure represents the first of its kind in the United States.[1] The legislative action follows incidents earlier this year in which X platform users generated large volumes of non-consensual intimate imagery using xAI's Grok chatbot.[1]
