Boys at her school shared AI-generated, nude images of her. After a fight, she was the one expelled

The teasing was relentless. Nude images of a 13-year-old girl and her friends, generated by artificial intelligence, were circulating on social media and had become the talk of a Louisiana middle school.

The girls begged for help, first from a school guidance counselor and then from a sheriff’s deputy assigned to their school. But the images were shared on Snapchat, an app that deletes messages seconds after they’re viewed, and the adults couldn’t find them. The principal had doubts they even existed.

Among the kids, the pictures were still spreading. When the 13-year-old girl stepped onto the Lafourche Parish school bus at the end of the day, a classmate was showing one of them to a friend.

“That’s when I got angry,” the eighth grader recalled at her discipline hearing.

Fed up, she attacked a boy on the bus, inviting others to join her. She was kicked out of Sixth Ward Middle School for more than 10 weeks and sent to an alternative school. She said the boy whom she and her friends suspected of creating the images wasn’t sent to that alternative school with her. The 13-year-old girl’s attorneys allege he avoided school discipline altogether.

i'm sure that ai generated nudes of schoolgirls is not forbidden by any law that trump is likely to enforce against good boys from nice christian families..

Obviously, producing pornography and fake nudes is profitable. Attracts an audience.

Should be illegal.

can "instantly" make Meme photos/gifs and TikToc shorts with a photograph and few AI prompts.
OpenAI folks who developed Sora said they weren't going to put in any censor or age restrictions, because, whatever.

…are the points that the boys responsible for these images have been criminally charged, and that the victim’s expulsion was reversed by the school board.

But the principal who ignored her initially because “kids lie all the time” has no business being in education, particularly relating to middle- and high-school students.

with only being allowed to post a minimal bit of a a story on here. However, it also points to the general failure of school systems nationwide to prevent bullying of any kind, and particularly cyberbullying and any kind of sexual bullying whatsoever.
