AI Twist: Cops Arrest Teen Who Sent Fake AI Nude Pics to Fellow Students, But Not Guy Who Made Them

The girlfriend of a young Pensacola man who allegedly used Artificial Intelligence to digitally “undress” pictures of more than a dozen girls and women has been arrested for sending the images without consent. The 18-year-old former Washington High School student who parents and victims say made the pictures has not been charged.

Pensacola police issued a press release Thursday afternoon saying investigators have charged 17-year-old Jaylyn Lee with promoting an altered sexual depiction of an identifiable person without consent, a third-degree felony.

Investigators say Lee obtained the cell phone of a “male acquaintance” that contained AI generated nude photos of 14 females. They say she then made a copy of the photos with her cell phone and kept them for a month before disseminating them to 17 high school students, some of whom were not depicted in the AI generated photos.

Investigators obtained a warrant for Lee’s arrest, and she turned herself in today, police say.

The more the ramifications of AI become clear, the more terrifying it is, for one thing. 

And who gets hammered for what when it's misused - as is already happening repeatedly - is going to be a fierce, ongoing legal battle.

I am not a fan at all.
