A mother and her 14-year-old daughter are advocating for better protections for victims after AI-generated nude images of the teen and other female classmates were circulated at a high school in New Jersey.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the country, officials are investigating an incident involving a teenage boy who allegedly used artificial intelligence to create and distribute similar images of other students – also teen girls - that attend a high school in suburban Seattle, Washington.

The disturbing cases have put a spotlight yet again on explicit AI-generated material that overwhelmingly harms women and children and is booming online at an unprecedented rate. According to an analysis by independent researcher Genevieve Oh that was shared with The Associated Press, more than 143,000 new deepfake videos were posted online this year, which surpasses every other year combined.

      IMO the days of searching for porn of prospective employees are over. With the advent of AI generated porn, what would be the point of that?

          Seriously? Maybe we don’t read the same stuff but that’s not something I’ve noticed.

          I just can’t imagine how that’s possible. I wish someone would fire me over porn so I could sue them for unfair dismissal as well as defamation and or libel.
