Pennsylvania cannot politicize child protection
In 2023, a Pennsylvania school failed to report AI-generated sexually explicit images involving female students, as state law does not require reporting when minors produce child pornography. Pennsylvania has not closed this legal loophole despite rising AI technology, leaving victims without timely investigations. The General Assembly is urged to classify AI-generated child sexual abuse material as reportable abuse.
