High school students, parents warned about deepfake nude photo threat

The Beverly Hills Unified School District says the laws are still catching up with the technology. Multiple Los Angeles-area school districts have investigated instances of "inappropriate," artificial intelligence-generated images of students circulating online and in text messages in recent months. Most recently, the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) announced that it is investigating "allegations of inappropriate photos being created and disseminated within the Fairfax High School community," the school district told Fox News Digital in a statement. "These allegations are taken seriously, do not reflect the values of the Los Angeles Unified community and will result in appropriate disciplinary action if warranted." A preliminary investigation revealed that the images were allegedly "created and shared on a third-party messaging app unaffiliated with" LAUSD.
