The NSPCC said generative AI is already being used to create sexual abuse images of children, and urged the Government to consider adopting specific safeguards into legislation to regulate AI. “The NSPCC and the majority of the public want tech companies to do the right thing for children and make sure the development of AI doesn’t race ahead of child safety. AI companies must prioritise the protection of children and the prevention of AI abuse imagery above any thought of profit Derek Ray-Hill “We have the blueprints needed to ensure this technology has children’s wellbeing at its heart, now both Government and tech companies must take the urgent action needed to make generative AI safe for children and young people.” International conference the AI Action Summit is due to take place in Paris next month.
