Elon Musk's artificial-intelligence company failed to persuade a federal judge to temporarily block a Minnesota law that regulates AI tools used to create non-consensual sexually explicit images of real people, allowing the measure to take effect on Saturday while the broader legal challenge continues.
US District Judge Donovan Frank on Friday denied xAI's request for an emergency injunction against what Minnesota has described as the first state law targeting AI "nudification" tools, finding that the company had waited too long to seek urgent relief.
