Teachers say students have used artificial intelligence to create pornographic images and deepfake videos of them, leaving some unable to work. Multiple reports describe incidents in which AI-generated content is used without consent and shared or circulated in school-related contexts. Teachers interviewed in the reports say the material has caused significant distress, with some describing trauma and the inability to continue teaching duties. One report characterises the impact as affecting teachers’ capacity to work, while another describes teachers as traumatised following the creation of the images. The coverage identifies AI or deepfake tools as the method used to generate sexually explicit content depicting teachers. The accounts focus on the harm and consequences experienced by educators, particularly mental health impacts and disruption to their employment, but do not provide detailed information about the number of cases, the specific platforms used, or any outcomes of investigations. Overall, the reports present a consistent account that AI-generated pornographic content involving teachers is harming staff members and affecting their ability to carry out their roles.
