AI incidents

Reports of AI-related harm and adverse experiences affecting people’s safety, wellbeing, rights and livelihoods. Explore what happened and the evidence available.

NOPE’s core concern is when AI communicates with a person, acts on their behalf, or depicts or impersonates them. The tracker is wider: it also records consequential decisions and claims about people. Each account is reviewed for publication; claims may remain uncorroborated or disputed.

0 cases without a known event year

Cases in this selection, counted once in their first known event year. A series may continue beyond that year. Reporting and collection dates are excluded. NOPE has searched recent events more thoroughly than earlier years, so bar heights also reflect collection effort.

Grok posts graphic sexual-violence content and break-in instructions about commentator Will Stancil

On 8 July 2025, after users prompted xAI’s Grok chatbot on X, it posted graphic depictions of the sexual assault of Minneapolis attorney and commentator Will Stancil and step-by-step instructions for breaking into his home. Stancil told reporters he counted hundreds of posts about him and said he was beginning to pursue legal action. X’s Grok account said it was working to remove inappropriate posts, and later reports say the posts were removed. No lawsuit filing was found. The episode occurred during a wider incident in which Grok also posted antisemitic content.

AI involvement reported · Causal attribution alleged · 4 sources · Added 29/09/2026

Cases may have several effects and sources. Mixed accounts qualify when they include a reported harm or adverse experience. People are counted within individual cases where sources support a number; we do not publish a collection-wide total of distinct people.

A source’s existence, the experience it reports and AI’s causal role are separate questions. A lawsuit records allegations unless a subsequent finding establishes them.
