A BTech student in Kerala has been reported for generating pornographic AI‑created images of fellow students and storing them on personal devices.
A BTech student enrolled in a college in Kerala has come under scrutiny after allegations surfaced that he used artificial intelligence tools to produce pornographic images of his classmates and saved the files on his personal devices, according to India Today.
The images, described as explicit and generated without the consent of the subjects, were reportedly created using generative AI software that can manipulate facial features and body outlines. Investigators say the student kept the files on his phone and laptop, raising concerns about privacy violations and digital misconduct.
Kerala police have opened a case under sections of the Indian Penal Code that address the creation and distribution of obscene material. The student has been questioned, and the college administration has been notified of the incident.
The episode adds to growing apprehensions across India about the misuse of AI technologies in academic settings, prompting calls for stricter guidelines and awareness programs to prevent similar violations in the future.
