IWF research into how artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being used to create child sexual abuse imagery online
AI-Generated Child Abuse Sexual Imagery Threatens to “Overwhelm” Internet
A new podcast from the IWF focuses on new research from Finnish child protection agency Suojellaan Lapsia which shows how offenders operate and the methods they use.
A trial project has demonstrated a first-of-its-kind chatbot and warning message can reduce the number of online searches that may potentially be indicative of intent to find sexual images of children.
The project is the first of its kind to use chatbot technology to intervene when people attempt to search for sexual images of children and aim to help them stop, or not start, offending.
The findings will be ‘invaluable’ in turning the tide on the threat children are facing from online predators.
