- Massachusetts is failing to keep kids safe online. It can start by criminalizing AI-generated child pornography
Massachusetts has not explicitly criminalized AI-generated child sexual abuse material, leaving a legal gap as such crimes rise nationally. The state faces a 77% increase in child exploitation reports since 2024, with Senate Bill S.2633 proposed to address the issue.
- Why generic AI policies won’t protect students from AI sexual exploitation
Massachusetts passed a bill to restrict social media access for younger teens and ban school cellphones, but experts argue it fails to address AI-generated sexual exploitation of students. A Stanford HAI report highlights schools' lack of preparedness to handle AI-created explicit content, with cases like a middle-school student discovering fake nude images of herself circulating among peers. The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children reported a 1,325% increase in AI-related submissions in 2024.
