Sextortion is increasing amid rise in AI-generated nudes.
The number of fake nudes on the top 10 websites that host AI-generated porn has increased by 290 percent since 2018, according to a recent report by The Washington Post, alongside a 149 percent rise in reported “sextortion” victims since 2019.
It’s unclear how many sextortion images are AI-generated, but the tools to create these deepfakes are easy to use and access — and already creating a problem in high schools.
AI fake nudes are booming. It’s ruining real teens’ lives.
