AI misuse and nudification

This resource explores generative AI and how it can be misused, with a specific focus on using generative AI to edit a photo of somebody to make them appear nude or naked, sometimes called ‘nudification’.

The resource include three lesson plans, which cover:

• What is generative AI and what can it be used for?
• Misuse of generative AI and the possible impacts
• Reporting nude images made using generative AI

Each lesson plan includes accompanying appendices and slides. At the end of the third lesson, there are extension activities educators can use to consolidate learning.

Each lesson is designed to be an hour long, but you may wish to divide the content up into smaller sections for shorter lesson lengths.

This resource is for use with learners aged 13-17, but may be suitable for use with 11 and 12 year olds with adaptation.

It is important to engage parents and carers with these topics to encourage consistent and cohesive messaging at home. We would suggest sharing the accompanying information leaflet with parents and carers to help them understand this issue. The leaflet defines generative AI and nudification, explains the impact, and provides advice on how to support a young person with this issue.
