You could see “A video created using artificial intelligence” and photos “Manipulated” in such a way that the people who appeared there appeared “Completely naked”according to the same source. After having registered the other complaints, the gendarmes questioned the teenagers, the latter suspecting while “The author (facts) could be a classmate”. These suspicions were confirmed when the civil guard obtained the IP addresses of the accounts created and discovered that they were attached to the “Home of one” Students, currently being prosecuted for corruption of minors.
Spain has already known in the past cases of distribution of pornographic images of minors produced with AI. In response, the government of the socialist Pedro Sánchez agreed in March to criminalize the dissemination of false sexual videos generated without the consent of the people concerned by artificial intelligence. This bill, which the government has described as a pioneer in Europe, must be voted by the Congress.
