Students used AI to create nude photos of their classmates. For some, arrests came next.

There would be nothing better for a 24 year old fresh out of college than to spend at least a few years teaching. To see what’s really important in life. Make a difference for people who need it. Just maybe to realize that a career doesn’t have to be all about chasing every buck, but rather making a difference and living a life of meaningful service.

Dear 24 yo entering teaching:

Direct instruction works
SEL Is crap
Trauma-informed is crap
Kids need encouragement, expectations, boundaries and kindness
YOU deserve boundaries too. Don't let the kids cross yours
If teaching damages you, leave. It's too hard these days.

Good luck
 
Uh-huh. Put AI in the same room as teen-age boys..and what do you think will happen?


Stevie Hyder felt nauseous.
Standing in the hallway at her Illinois high school a few weeks ago, the 15-year-old found out one of her sophomore classmates was using artificial intelligence, or AI, to create nude photos of her. Dozens of doctored images of her and other teenage girls were floating around, a friend told her. Some even depicted teachers.
By the time the principal called her mom, Hyder was the 22nd girl on his list.


As AI gains a stronger foothold in the American economy and culture, administrators are watching it creep into schools.
In December, two middle school boys at a charter school in Miami were arrested on suspicion of using an AI app to create nude photos of their classmates, who were between the ages of 12 and 13, according to an arrest warrant.
Officials charged the boys with third-degree felonies, citing a state law that forbids the “unauthorized promotion of a sexually explicit image.” A number of states, including Texas and Virginia, have so-called “deepfake laws,” which criminalize the nonconsensual creation of pornography using an image of another person. Even more state legislatures are mulling putting such rules on the books.
A few months later, a similar scandal hit a middle school in Beverly Hills, California.
In February, five eighth-graders at Beverly Vista Middle School were involved in using AI to superimpose the faces of 16 other eighth-graders onto photos of nude bodies, according to CBS Los Angeles and a statement from the district.

The Beverly Hills Police Department launched an investigation into the incident, according to department spokesperson Andrew Myers. The probe is ongoing.
What the holy hell is this shit? Arrested? For what?!

AI photoshopping? Really?

AI photos. Students can snap a pic of a person--a girl, a teacher-- and AI will generate a (realistic) pic of that person nood. Students then distribute those photos far and wide.

But it's not a real pic.
 
But it's not a real pic.

So you have a 15 yo daughter. Some jerk takes a snap of her and in 10 seconds, the AI app removes her clothing and estimates a VERY REALISTIC pic of her, nood, with some teen doing unspeakable things to her. This guy then distributes this photo to 50 of his friends.

You're okay with this?
 
But it's not a real pic.

Or your wife is a teacher. Same scenario. Kid takes a snap, AI undresses her, kid puts her in a prurient situation and sends it to everyone on his list at school.

This is okay? She gets paid 50K a year for this so, no problem, it's not a real pic?

I mean what?
 
I’ve seen AI generated images of famous females like Emma Watson. I’m pretty sure she never actually posed nude, much less worked in any porn videos.

I suspect she is aware of the crap done to her public profile by the geeks who do these things. But even her fame doesn’t justify it. How much worse it must feel to be a non famous school-girl and be subjected to such things.

It's not cool, but arrests? I have doubts.

Oh, most definitely not. I'd be going to have a talk with the father ASAP.
 
I invite anyone to ponder with me why any college graduate would become a secondary teacher.

So you're 24 yo, you've just graduated college, and you'd like to teach MS math. But here's an 8th grader with a phone who snaps a pic of you and just like that, AI noods of you are sent all around the school.

His mom insists he MUST have the phone so he can order Uber Eats after school.

For all of this, plus all the normal grief, you get paid 40 grand starting salary. That's BEFORE your high deductible health insurance that you pay for. No more "cadillac" plans.

But hey, my fellow conservatives? Keep railing on about how teachers are just intent on grooming the kids, certainly that's the big problem here.
I would never be a teacher in this day and age.
Maybe post-secondary....in some quiet college.
 
They should be charged for this. It is wrong for a young boy to want to do this. Arrested is the least. It's wrong to have these thoughts.

Oh some here think 50k is a fair wage. Hard to believe it but they are that backwards.
 
If you're weak, you're weak (like Ms. Quitsalot above) but the real question is COULD you be one?
chuckles

Probably not. My personality type is such that I'd not go that extra mile for the handful of shit that I'd receive at the end of it. I've worked hard to gain the knowledge base that I've got. IMO, most people are unwilling to put in the work..the late nights reading...the research...the painful process that is learning. Every time I've taught I've loved it...but I've always either picked my students..my kids and family..or they have been incentivized by the workplace to learn. A bunch of random curtain crawlers and rugrats? No thanks!
Someone has to teach our aspiring immigrants English...it might as well be you.

Hope they're getting a good dose of STEM as well, yet somehow I doubt it~

AI photoshopping? Really?
Yes. Really. The viewer in this age group cannot tell the difference. You're likeness in a lewd pic, or video is no less egregious than a forged signature on a check...

Geezus.... I knew this was coming I just didn't expect it so soon.

Few go into it; even fewer stay.

My fellow conservatives are still stuck thinking the problem is we're trying to indoctrinate kids.

Sure, sure. That's the ticket.

I know you're not a real teacher so you're taking shots when you can. Whatever. I just got my certificate renewed for the last time. My first certificate was issued in 1992. That's not "quits a lot". That's still standing and still delivering quality teaching.
