Police investigation remains open. The photo of one of the minors included a fly; that is the logo of Clothoff, the application that is presumably being used to create the images, which promotes its services with the slogan: “Undress anybody with our free service!”

      This is going to be a problem in every country, very soon, because we aren’t moving quickly enough on laws surrounding AI and in particular ethics.

        it probably already is in a few but just hasn’t been reported, it was only thanks to the mum of one of the victims who is friends with many of my classmates who reported it after finding out that the news got big iirc

        regarding the AI laws, I think in the long run we should focus much more on education against this stuff because the fact that children from ages 12-17 are doing and falling victims to this is a pretty obvious sign that people do not receive the proper sexual and mental education they need.

          In this case I agree that education is probably a better approach. I was speaking broadly because there are serious issues with ethical considerations involving the implementation of AI. I think highlighting how we broadly run into issues like this as well as the other numerous ethical problems with AI can help to push our legal systems to take this more seriously. Anything involving children often gets more attention and we should be taking advantage of that to push for progress.
