UK to introduce AI child abuse legislation, Global Legal Insights
Catriona Allan, a partner at specialist family law firm Goodman Ray, tells ICLG News:
“As someone who works with children and families who have often suffered various forms of abuse it is stark how terribly some human beings can behave towards others. Those not involved with victims may often think that AI images are not harmful as they don’t involve real people, but they can often be reiteration of existing abuse or perpetuating it.”
