AI Tech Giants Enabled Digital Exploitation of Women and Children: Report

Recent news stories allege tech companies like X, Apple, Google have profited from apps that let users digitally undress women and children without their consent.

A report from the Tech Transparency Project reveals that tech giants have hosted dozens of AI-powered “nudify” applications on their app stores, despite having policies that supposedly prohibit such content.

These apps use artificial intelligence to create deepfake nude images of real people, including minors. The apps have reportedly been downloaded more than 705 million times worldwide.

This technology represents a new form of sexual exploitation that lawmakers and parents are struggling to address. The apps essentially let anyone with a smartphone sexually victimize others. And despite repeated warnings from pro-family groups and others, tech companies have been slow to remove these applications.

Arkansas families need to understand this threat. Last year, Arkansas’ lawmakers passed Act 827 by Rep. Stephen Meeks (R — Greenbrier) and Sen. Clint Penzo (R — Springdale) to prohibit people from using artificial intelligence to create and distribute deepfake pornographic images depicting another individual without that individual’s consent. The law also lets the Arkansas Attorney General take legal action against the developers responsible for this kind of technology. It’s a good law that helps address this problem — but it’s possible Arkansas will need to do more as artificial intelligence continues to expand.

Major U.S. Medical Group Finally Calls for Protecting Kids from Sex-Change Procedures

The nation’s largest professional organization for plastic surgeons now recommends delaying sex-rejecting surgeries for children until at least age 19.

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons is one of the first major U.S. medical associations to stop promoting sex-change procedures for kids. The group said it found “insufficient evidence” that the benefits of surgery outweigh the risks for minors with gender dysphoria.

The ASPS reportedly changed its stance after reviewing England’s 2024 Cass Review that found glaring problems with giving children cross-sex hormones and puberty blockers and with subjecting children to sex-change surgeries.

All of this is really good news.

Public health experts and policymakers in the U.S.the U.K.SwedenFinland, and other nations have found that science simply does not support giving puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones to kids. These drugs and procedures carry serious risks — including infertility, sexual dysfunction, impaired bone density, and cardiovascular problems.

Whistleblowers have come forward to testify about how they were rushed through gender transitions as children without understanding the procedures’ risks, consequences, or alternatives.

Today we know pro-LGBT activists and medical organizations have been citing each other’s work in a circular pattern for years, manufacturing a fake consensus about performing sex-change procedures on kids.

For the past 12 months, federal officials have consistently worked to protect children from these dangerous procedures.

Last year, President Trump issued an executive order prohibiting federal funding from being used for sex-change procedures on kids, and the federal government is expected to propose new rules that could help protect children from sex-change procedures nationwide.

Over the summer, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced a public inquiry into whether U.S. doctors and clinics may have deceived parents and children about the risks of these procedures. The U.S. Department of Justice also subpoenaed doctors and medical facilities involved in performing sex-change procedures on minors.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has discussed a series of regulatory actions to protect children from these procedures.

In September, the U.S. Department of Justice sent Congress the federal Victims of Chemical or Surgical Mutilation Act. The proposed federal law would generally prevent doctors, hospitals, and clinics from performing sex-change surgeries on children or giving them puberty blockers or cross-sex hormones.

In 2021, lawmakers in Arkansas passed the Save Adolescents from Experimentation (SAFE) Act. This good law generally prohibits doctors from performing sex-change procedures on children or giving them puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones.

The SAFE Act was upheld in federal court last year and is protecting children in Arkansas right now.

It’s good to see medical professionals finally taking steps to protect children from dangerous sex-change procedures. It represents what some have called “a refreshing return to sanity” when it comes to how we help children with gender dysphoria.
