"The measures will require all AI chatbot providers to abide by digital safety laws, including a ban on creating sexualised images without a subject's consent. The move follows action against non-consensual intimate images created by the Grok chatbot on Elon Musk's X platform. Starmer's office went on to explain its push for broader powers, saying it wants to act on the findings of the public consultation within months, rather than waiting years for new primary legislation every time technology evolves."
"The consultation, which begins in March, will consider measures like setting a minimum age limit for social media and a ban on children from using virtual private networks (VPNs) to access pornography. It comes as more countries worldwide eye restrictions after Australia became the first nation to prohibit children below 16 from using social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, TikTok and YouTube."
Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced measures to crack down on AI chatbots that endanger children and to seek broader legal powers to regulate minors' internet access. The government will target vile and illegal AI-generated content and require all AI chatbot providers to follow digital safety laws, including banning creation of sexualised images without a subject's consent. The measures follow non-consensual intimate images produced by the Grok chatbot on X. The consultation beginning in March will consider setting a minimum social media age and banning children from using VPNs to access pornography. Measures will be introduced as amendments to existing crime and child-protection legislation.
