Explicit AI-generated images of young Spanish girls shock the world.
A town in Spain made international headlines after a number of young schoolgirls said they received fabricated nude images of themselves that were created using an easily accessible "undressing app" powered by artificial intelligence, raising a larger discussion about the harm these tools can cause.
A group of male perpetrators, who police say knew most of the victims, used photos taken from the social media profiles of female victims and uploaded them to a nudify app, authorities told ABC News. "This is a direct abuse of women and girls, by technology that is specifically designed to abuse women and girls," said Professor Clare McGlynn, a law professor at Durham University in the U.K. and an expert on violence against women and girls.
The team behind the app said they investigated how their app was used after the news of the case in Spain broke out and found that the perpetrators had a workaround and likely used a combination of their app and another app to create the non-consensual nudes. A Visa spokesperson told ABC News that it does not permit the use of their network to be used for illegal activity. "Visa rules require merchants to obtain consent from all persons depicted in any adult content, including computer-generated or computer-modified content, such as deepfakes," added a spokesperson.
"If they do not understand what they did now, if they don't realize it, what they will become later?" said Parra. "Maybe rapist, maybe gender violent perpetrator… they need to be educated and to change now.”
