Artificial Intelligence and Online Violence Against Women and Girls
That this Assembly expresses grave concern at the documented use of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies to perpetrate online violence against women and girls; condemns the creation and dissemination of non-consensual intimate images, including AI-generated deepfakes, as a serious and escalating form of abuse; notes recent commitments by the UK Government to criminalise such activity; further notes the Department of Justice consultation on comparable proposals in Northern Ireland; and calls on the Minister of Justice to ensure that effective criminal offences, enforcement powers, and victim protections are in place no later than those in England and Wales.
