A new bill is slated to be introduced to Parliament that specifically targets the use of artificial intelligence to generate child sexual abuse material. The proposed legislation aims to criminalise the development and deployment of AI tools designed for this purpose.
The move comes as concerns mount over the potential for AI to be exploited in the creation of harmful content. The bill seeks to address a gap in existing laws, ensuring that individuals who create or use AI for child abuse face legal consequences. This legislative effort highlights the growing need for proactive measures to counter the misuse of AI technology.
If passed, the bill would establish a clear legal framework for prosecuting those who exploit AI to create child sexual abuse material, sending a strong message that such activities will not be tolerated.
