Parents were shocked when they learned students at Westfield High School were sharing nude images generated by A.I. technology that depicted real female students. Dorota Mani, whose daughter attends the school, said she finds it “unacceptable” that New Jersey has “nothing in place to protect our children.”

Wow, YouTube deleted my comment for saying that the boys need to be punished even more.
Whoever the ceo of YouTube is, you’re doing a fantastic job, buddy. Nice censorship!
Did the legal analyst say 1.2 billion dollars?
Ok this is a serious matter but the law expert is just speaking nonsense. No company can prevent users from using software to create anything
If you commit suicide because of a fake picture please blame the parents for not raising there kids with a backbone.
Imma make it simple guy was wrong if they can charge do it
This is why AI scares me. It will be used for evil and soon we won’t be able to tell what is real and what isn’t… I’m terrified for the future
This is sad and disgusting but also has been a problem for years and it had nothing to do with AI
Deep Fake technology was a thing way before generative AI was common place and widely used.
But again thats disgusting and the parents should have taken a more hands on role in their kids lives’ including enrollement in sports, a job, or a program for self development
I don’t understand. Why exactly is it not OK?
this has to be illegal 😡😡 this is so disturbing and wrong in all different types of ways. who is raising these pos boys, and people need to talk about how school administrations or so sneaky
We need to teach boys and men emotional intelligence, respect for women and community
This will only get worse with every day that passes as AI can outpace legal change with immense ease. Theres the issue of what can be done if it isnt actually that persons body. AI can alter the image just enough for the picture to be classified as someone who doesnt exist. The pictures can be made and released with anonymity. Is it CP if the body appears to be a woman of age. If someone was looking at pic’s where the face was of age, but the body was not, is that CP? How could anything be proven. There are so many difficult questions. This can also already be done with video, albeit not as easily, but next month you may be able to do it on your mobile phone, and by next year it could be done in “real time”.
There are so many issues around this and it would require a decade in the legal system to iron it all out since it involves the most powerful companies in the world. In a decade the world will likely look completely different, and AI will be at an incomprehensible level (if current progress is maintained).
Consider all that, and then consider that this is probably one of the more minor issues surrounding AI considering the other possibilities. I suspect this problem cant be solved. Especially considering the US government seems to have no interest in slowing things down. They did just recently sign an emergency order (or something, not sure as Im not in the US) that most experts agree will achieve very little.
If this is at all surprising or shocking to anyone then I would suggest following AI progress a bit closer and try to use other news sources, as mainstream media is just going with the shock stories.
why would these dudes go to the trouble of making ai images? they coulda just went on the girls IGs and got what they needed
The lawyer is a bit off, drawings/cartoons? Cause I’m pretty sure Bart Simpson is 10 and he’s been naked in a global movie lol. Don’t think anyone’s even thinking of anyone going to jail.
This is why social media was a set up anyway, we’ve all willfully uploaded enough information for A.I. i delete everything after every new year… people get offended but that’s what an external HD is for or dropbox… everyone is a target your face could be used for the next bank heist, all they have to do is capture multiple angles, Print it out and cast a resin lol protect yourself by not being your self
Here we go. It has begun.
They’re probably not fake lol
Mum is very well-spoken and put together. I bet she‘s a lawyer. Good for her for raising her daughter to speak out.
Our actions have profound impact on others. Raise your children to have integrity.
