Elon Musk’s xAI Sues Colorado Over AI Anti-Discrimination Law

Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company xAI sued Colorado to block a new state law requiring tech companies to establish safeguards to prevent discrimination by autonomous tools in certain employment decisions, among others.

In a lawsuit filed in federal court Thursday, xAI argued that the law “severely burdens” the development of AI tools and violates the Constitution’s First Amendment by requiring developers to “embed the state’s preferred views into the very fabric of AI systems.”
