WE'RE WATCHING

Minnesota is the first state in the country to ban AI nudification — the practice of using AI to create fake nude images of real people, including children. Now Elon Musk's Grok is suing to kill the law before it can be enforced.

People in power are choosing not to protect children. This year, parents watched Elon Musk’s Grok AI chatbot generate tens of thousands of sexualized images of children with impunity while the Trump Administration stood aside. xAI has not been fined so much as a penny by the federal government for creating non-consensual pornographic images that violated countless women and children. Musk has also been connected to the most notorious pedophile and sex offender of our time —

The Christian Coalition of Alabama has launched a statewide Christian radio campaign to sound the alarm and hold Alabama legislators accountable for failing to protect children from online harm.

House Bill 5598, a newly introduced South Carolina bill, would hold technology developers and AI providers directly accountable when their tools are used to create, alter, or generate intimate images of real, identifiable individuals without their consent.

A recent analysis found nearly 90 schools and 600 students around the world impacted by AI-generated deepfake nude images—and the problem shows no signs of going away.

Every day, children tap "accept" on apps, games and websites — usually without realising how much personal information they may be sharing as a result. A single click can reveal far more than a name: it can unveil friendships, interests, moods and even sleep patterns, creating a digital footprint that can last forever — or be exploited by people with harmful intentions.

AI will undoubtedly shape the future in profound ways. The task before us is making sure that future is one where innovation and legislation advance together — with the safety of children as a non-negotiable priority.

The city of Baltimore filed a lawsuit Tuesday against Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company, xAI, after its chatbot Grok was used to generate nonconsensual, sexually explicit images — including images of minors.

One in five teens and young adults say they’ve experienced sextortion. These crimes often begin with predators posing as peers online.

In 2025, the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) identified 8,029 pieces of AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM). That represents a 14% increase from the previous year.

Trump's new federal AI framework is placing more responsibility on parents to protect their children online—while offering few enforceable safeguards for the companies creating these powerful technologies.

A trio of bills designed to strengthen protections for children and teens online moved forward Thursday after the House Energy and Commerce Committee held more than five hours of debate.

A growing number of toys marketed as “AI learning companions” for children are raising serious concerns among child safety experts. A recent report from Common Sense Media warns that many popular AI-powered toys may expose children to inappropriate content, collect sensitive data, and even encourage unhealthy emotional attachment.

AI image generators can now create fake nude or sexualized images of real kids and teenagers in seconds, often without their knowledge and sometimes by other students.

As outrage grew, Grok itself posted an apology. Elon Musk, however, largely dismissed the controversy.

The Alabama House passed legislation to address the growing danger of technology that can generate explicit images of people, including minors, without their knowledge or consent.

Grok produced millions of sexualized images of women and minors in a matter of days.
