Criminalising AI child abuse tools becomes law in the UK
ai generated text
The UK is set to become the first country to introduce laws against artificial intelligence (AI) tools used to generate sexualized images, specifically those depicting children. This move is aimed at preventing the creation and distribution of AI-generated child abuse material.
Online child sexual abuse material is growing, but also the grooming of children and teenagers online. And what's now happening is that AI is putting this on steroids.
We know that sick predators' activities online often lead to them carrying out the most horrific abuse in person.
This is a real disturbing phenomenon. Online child sexual abuse material is growing, but also the grooming of children teenagers online. And what's now happening is that AI is putting this on steroids.
It is vital that we tackle child sexual abuse online as well as offline so we can better protect the public from new and emerging crimes.
Other countries are not yet doing this, but I hope everyone else will follow.
