> When deepfakes and CSAM are being generated by data centers in our city

No-one has credibly accused Grok of making CSAM, surely?

By definition CSAM is a record of real abuse, so cannot be generated by a data centre. Sexual deepfaking children is not the same thing.



Legally it is CSAM.

  In the United States, the PROTECT Act of 2003 made significant changes to the law regarding virtual child pornography. Any realistic appearing computer generated depiction that is indistinguishable from a depiction of an actual minor in sexual situations or engaging in sexual acts is illegal under 18 U.S.C. § 2252A.

> Legally it is CSAM.

Your source does not say that. Your source says only that it illegal. Illegal does not make it CSAM.
