Elon Musk's xAI firm is seeking public identities of four individuals alleged to have had deepfakes created using Grok. The plaintiffs, fearing further harassment, request anonymity in the lawsuit.

The case involves emotional distress and potential doxing risks if their real names are revealed. Legal arguments center on balancing transparency with privacy concerns, as Musk's companies face backlash over AI-generated content.

A law professor argues that forcing real-name suits can deter legitimate claims. The plaintiffs describe severe emotional trauma from seeing unconsented deepfakes of themselves online.

Despite the firm's request, the judge has yet to rule on whether pseudonyms should remain. This battle highlights the ongoing tension between technological advances and privacy rights in the digital age.
