AI Misuse Crackdown: Nation Passes Toughest Law Against AI-Generated Child Exploitation
New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu): AI is being discussed all over the world and its benefits are being discussed all over the world, but its disadvantages cannot be ignored either. The UK has made a big announcement regarding AI and said that legal action will be taken against those who create child abuse content with the help of AI. The UK has become the first country in the world to make such a law.
If child abuse content is created with AI then there will be punishment…for the first time a country has made a strict law on this: Home Secretary Yvette Cooper in the UK government said that four new laws would be introduced to prevent threats like child pornography images generated by AI. There is also a provision for punishment of up to 5 years for the guilty. The UK Home Ministry said regarding this that Britain is going to become the first country in the world which makes it illegal to possess, create or distribute AI products that create child abuse content.
Keeping AI pedophile manuals has also been found to be illegal and offenders will be punished with up to three years of imprisonment. Under the AI pedophile manual, people are taught to use AI for sexual abuse. Under the new law, websites that share content related to child pornography will also come under child abuse content. The new law will also include websites that give advice on how to prepare children for sexual abuse.
