Artificial Intelligence: Offences against Children
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether her Department plans to use artificial intelligence to bypass end-to-end encryption to reduce access to the livestreaming of child abuse.
Answered by Jess Phillips
The Home Office is actively developing options to support more systematic and effective deployment of such technology to fully mitigate harms to children from producing and sharing such imagery. This includes actively considering requirements on device operating systems to implement controls to better protect child users of smartphones; with the option of device-level age assurance for adult users.
