Renfrewshire Council said it has “robust policies in place” regarding violence and aggression, as well as acceptable use of ICT and mobile phone use in schools.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson added: “While the nature of social media platforms makes online abuse a difficult issue to manage across society, we will always do what we can to protect our staff and will continue to work with teaching unions and any other group to consider how best to do that.”<\/p>\n
In January police investigated a school in County Armagh<\/a> after explicit AI generated images of girls were shared among pupils, while police on the Isle of Man warned that the number of children using AI to generate indecent deepfake images<\/a> had soared. <\/p>\n An Ofcom spokesperson said: “Under the Online Safety Act, tech firms must assess the risk of people in the UK encountering illegal content on their platforms, take appropriate steps to reduce the risk of UK users encountering it and take it down quickly when they become aware of it.<\/p>\n “They are also accountable for ensuring sites, platforms and apps are safer for the children who use them.<\/p>\n “It can be illegal to create or share non-consensual intimate images including sexual deepfakes created with AI and individuals who commit criminal offences online can face prosecution by law enforcement.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Renfrewshire Council said it has “robust policies in place” regarding violence and aggression, as well as acceptable use…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":509067,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[554,733,4308,86,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-509066","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-artificial-intelligence","tag-ai","tag-artificial-intelligence","tag-artificialintelligence","tag-technology","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509066","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=509066"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/509066\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/509067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=509066"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=509066"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=509066"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
