AI DEEPFAKE

👮AI deepfake creator jailed for 18 years

A British man, Hugh Nelson, received an 18-year prison sentence for creating and distributing explicit AI-generated images of children.

The Details:

• Charges and Actions: Nelson pleaded guilty to several offenses, including making, distributing, and commissioning AI-generated explicit images of children.

• Use of AI Software: He used Daz 3D software to create images based on requests from online chatrooms, allegedly creating graphic depictions for sale and distribution.

• Company Response: Daz 3D stated its software prohibits illegal content creation and that it supports law enforcement.

• Legal Test Case: The case challenged current UK legislation on AI-generated explicit content due to the novelty of using AI for such purposes.

With rapid advances in AI, there’s a pressing need for updated laws to address misuse. This case serves as a reminder of AI’s potential dangers and underscores the urgency of regulation to prevent such harmful applications.
