Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The event involves the use of AI systems (deepfake technology) to produce harmful content that directly harms individuals (students) by violating their rights and causing psychological and social harm. The harm has already occurred as victims have been identified and complaints filed. Therefore, this qualifies as an AI Incident due to realized harm caused by AI-generated content. The focus on the need for stricter protocols is a response to the incident but does not change the classification.[AI generated]
