Padilla v. SpaceXAI Corp. and SpaceXAI LLC is a proposed biometric-privacy class action concerning facial analysis of photographs uploaded to Grok.[1]

Claims and procedural history

Padilla alleges that Grok derives facial geometry when processing uploaded photographs without the notice, written release and retention policies required by Illinois law. The complaint distinguishes derived face scans from ordinary photographs.[1]

He seeks class certification, statutory damages and injunctive relief. Those requests and the alleged collection have not been adjudicated in the reviewed complaint.[1]
