    Nobody was “abused” this is out of hand. suspend the kid or whatever that did it, some kind of school punishment, but jail? And lawsuits over some ai images? Crazy.

      The lawsuit was about the fact the school knew for months about the problem and did nothing to address it. If they plausibly couldn’t know, it wouldn’t have been their fault but this was reported to the admin repeatedly and they did nothing.

        Exactly this, and rightly so. The school’s administration has a moral and legal obligation to do what it can for the safety of its students, and allowing this to continue unchecked violates both of those obligations.

    researchers concluded that “outlawing all deepfakes is unrealistic and unfeasible”—especially since all the harmful AI-generated images that are already out there are likely to “remain online indefinitely.”

    Just think a little bigger:

    It must be a crime to have the harmful material.

    Have it on your PC or phone —> goto jail.
    Have it in your online account —> goto jail.
    Be a service provider and have it on your server —> goto jail.

    This will reduce the stuff.

      You really haven’t thought this through. What happens if I email you a bunch of illegal pictures? Guess we’re both going to jail.

        Oh but I don’t need to think too much through it. It is pretty much the legal situation in Germany (and probably several other European countries). There may be some edge cases that I don’t know.

        Of course, if you send stuff to me, then you are the first of the evil ones :) and if I can convince the judge that I did not know and did not want (!) the stuff (and by the way, how did they even know about it? Even before I had the chance to delete it?), there will be room for a reasonable decision.
