Rejected petition Regulate AI image generation

AI image/video generation should be heavily regulated by the government and new laws such as forcibly watermarking images/videos, preventing users from creating pornographic material of any kind and regulating its usage for anyone under 18

More details

AI image generation has been and continues to be used to generate revenge/child pornography and ai companies have been entirely complicit by not making sufficient guard rails to prevent the material from being made. Regulations need to be put in place to stop this from happening or the problem will continue to get worse without government intervention.

Stop the damage AI continues to do to the UK.
