The children's commissioner for England is calling on the government to ban apps which use artificial intelligence (AI) to create sexually explicit images of children.
Dame Rachel de Souza said a total ban was needed on apps which allow "nudification" - where photos of real people are edited by AI to make them appear naked.
She said the government was allowing such apps to "go unchecked with extreme real-world consequences".
A government spokesperson said child sexual abuse material was illegal and that there were plans for further offences for creating, possessing or distributing AI tools designed to create such content.
