What just happened? San Francisco has demanded that Apple and Google remove 13 AI-powered apps capable of creating nonconsensual nude images. City Attorney David Chiu has accused the companies of profiting from technology overwhelmingly used to target women and girls.
Chiu sent cease-and-desist letters to the two tech giants on Thursday, demanding that they remove eight apps from Apple's App Store and five from Google Play.
The programs are advertised primarily as face-swapping tools, but investigators found that they could also place people's faces onto explicit images or generate fake nude content.
