Supreme Court Judge Warns AI Misuse Threatens Children Online
AI Misuse Poses New Threat to Children, Says SC Judge · deccanchronicle.com

Justice Vikram Nath warned that children can face serious dangers while using the internet.

These include people trying to exploit or groom them, bullying them, or using threats to blackmail them.

He said artificial intelligence can also be misused to make abusive images involving children.

Even fake images can hurt a child’s privacy, reputation and dignity.

Nath said adults and institutions should prepare for these dangers before children are harmed.

Law Minister Arjun Ram Meghwal said children, parents and teachers need to learn more about staying safe online.

He also said legal help should be easier for children to reach and understand.

The conference said prevention, protection, investigation, legal help and recovery should work together.
