Beverly Hills middle school is the latest to be rocked by a deepfake scandal

The new face of bullying in schools is real. Last week, officials and parents at Beverly Vista Middle School in Beverly Hills were shocked by reports that fake images were circulating online that put real students' faces on artificially generated nude bodies. According to the Beverly Hills Unified School District, the images were created and shared by other students at Beverly Vista, the district's sole school for sixth to eighth grades. About 750 students are enrolled there, according to the latest count. The district, which is investigating, joined a growing number of educational institutions around the world dealing with fake pictures, video and audio.
