Reports of AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM) have surged from under 5,000 in 2023 to over 400,000 in the past year, overwhelming US law enforcement. Experts state forensic tools cannot reliably distinguish AI images from real victims, causing immense misallocation of investigative resources.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Cybersecurity.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Detection of AI-generated media is now an operational crisis for law enforcement, not a theoretical debate. If your tech can reliably solve this, the police and cloud providers are waiting for your call.
