A group of experts on child abuse have warned of a rise in children using AI-generation tools to make indecent images of other children they don't like. Experts on child abuse have warned of the increasing number of instances where children in schools have used AI-powered image generators to create indecent images of fellow students. According to Hardy, the images students were generating of other students were "terrifying" realistic, and the quality of these images was "comparable to professional photos taken annually of children up[ and down the country". The body of experts calls on schools to enforce better blocking technology to prevent students from accessing these AI-powered tools on school premises.
