Protect your Generative AI Models from the devastating harm caused by online child sexual abuse

JOIN NOW OUR TECH SERVICES

Partner with IWF and take a zero-tolerance approach to your AI technology and services being used to produce images of child sexual abuse.

Low-Rank Adaptations (LoRAs) are being abused to fine tune the creation of photo-realistic child sexual abuse images, based on real images of a child. AI-generated child sexual abuse is now so realistic it is being treated as real abuse. The generation of this imagery has also increased the potential for the revictimisation of survivors of this heinous crime.

You can read more about the threat of AI technology being used to produce images of child sexual abuse in our report published in 2023 here.

As an organisation providing AI tools, there are measures you can take to protect your technology from this frightening development, by working with the Internet Watch Foundation. Our Image Hash List with over 2.6million confirmed images of child sexual abuse material (CSAM) can be a vital tool in stopping known CSAM images being uploaded and used for training on your tools to produce more synthetic images of CSAM.

AI-generated imagery of child sexual abuse has progressed at such a “frightening” rate that the Internet Watch Foundation (IWF) is now seeing the first convincing examples of AI videos depicting the sexual abuse of children.

 

 

Our updated AI report published in July 2024 provides further insight in the use of AI technology to produce incredibly realistic ‘deepfake’, or partially synthetic, videos of child rape and torture are made by offenders using AI tools that add the face or likeness of another person to a real video.

AI technology providers can help stop this abuse by joining IWF in membership and gaining access to our full suite of services. 

Join IWF Membership today and demonstrate your commitment to stopping child sexual abuse online

By joining IWF as a Member, you can free victims of child sexual abuse from repeated trauma and anxiety caused by having images of their exploitation shared online, via a VPN connection, sometimes long after the physical abuse itself has stopped.

In 2023 the IWF identified over 275,000 webpages containing millions of images and videos showing the graphic sexual abuse of children.
