成人の15人に1人がAI生成画像による性的・画像ベースの被害を経験との研究 (One in 15 Adults Has Experienced AI-Generated Image-Based Abuse, Study Finds)

RMIT大学を中心とする国際研究チームは、生成AIによる性的画像の無断作成・共有・共有の脅迫といった「AI生成画像を用いた性的虐待(AI-IBSA)」の被害実態を明らかにした。オーストラリア、英国、米国の成人7,230人を対象とした調査では、回答者の7.0%が18歳以降にAI生成画像による被害を経験しており、オーストラリアでは7.7%に達した。また、被害経験者の約87%が、健康や精神的な幸福、人間関係、仕事、経済面などに何らかの悪影響を受けていた。被害率は35歳未満、男性、障害のある人などで高く、男性の被害率は10.2%で女性の3.8%を上回った。一方、女性は安全への恐怖や心身の健康への悪影響など、より深刻な影響を報告した。本研究は、生成AIの悪用による被害が一部の著名人に限られない社会的問題であることを示し、AI開発者やプラットフォーム事業者による予防策、被害者支援、制度整備の必要性を提起している。

成人の15人に1人がAI生成画像による性的・画像ベースの被害を経験との研究 (One in 15 Adults Has Experienced AI-Generated Image-Based Abuse, Study Finds)

Abstract

Image-based sexual abuse (IBSA) involves the nonconsensual creation, distribution, or threatened distribution of intimate images. Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have enabled new forms of IBSA, yet empirical evidence on AI-generated IBSA (AI-IBSA) remains limited. This study addresses this gap through a cross-national survey conducted in July-August 2024 examining the prevalence, nature, and impacts of AI-IBSA across Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States (n = 7,230). Overall, 15.1% of respondents reported experiences of IBSA involving digitally altered images, including 7.0% who reported AI-IBSA victimization specifically. Victimization was higher among respondents under 35, LGBTQ+, and BIPOC participants, people with disabilities, and men. Despite higher victimization rates among men, women reported a broader range of harms and greater negative emotional and social impacts. Common responses included platform blocking (69.2%) and platform reporting (56.8%). These findings highlight AI-IBSA as an under-recognized harm requiring strengthened prevention interventions, platform governance, and victim-survivor support.


「それでも虐待だ」:AI生成画像に基づく性的虐待に対する地域社会の態度と認識 ‘It’s still abuse’: community attitudes and perceptions on AI-generated image-based sexual abuse

Abstract

There are growing concerns about AI-generated image-based sexual abuse (AI-IBSA), also known as nonconsensual sexualized ′deepfakes.′ Empirical research on AI-IBSA, however, remains very limited. This study surveyed 7231 respondents across Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States to investigate community attitudes and perceptions on AI-IBSA. Through a vignette study, we explored the relationship between public familiarity with AI-IBSA, normative concerns about consent, and context-dependent judgments that vary based on the target’s identity relational status, and how the content was used. Our findings reveal strong condemnation of AI-IBSA, yet respondents demonstrated low familiarity with the technology and their views varied depending on particular contexts. AI-IBSA targeting intimate partners was viewed as more unacceptable than targeting celebrities, and content created solely for personal use was seen as less unacceptable than content intended for distribution. The study highlights the need for approaches that go beyond technical fixes and punitive measures, advocating for a multifaceted response that integrates ethical data governance, digital sexual literacy, and restorative justice approaches.


AI生成画像に基づく性的虐待:3つの地域における加害と消費 AI-generated image-based sexual abuse: Perpetration and consumption across three regions

Highlights

  • 3.2% of 7231 representative respondents (Aus, UK, USA) reported perpetrating AI-IBSA.
  • Men were 3.9 times more likely than women to report perpetration behaviors.
  • 18.0% of respondents reported viewing AI-generated sexual imagery.

Abstract

The rapid pace of advancements in AI, paired with widespread availability and decreasing technical barriers, has resulted in significant concern about the generation of nonconsensual, synthetic sexualized imagery (e.g., sexual “deepfakes”). We surveyed a representative sample of 7231 respondents in Australia, the United Kingdom, and the United States to map the prevalence of perpetrating and consuming nonconsensual AI-generated sexualized images. In those three regions, the overall population level rate of creating, sharing, and/or threatening to share images is 3.2%. Men, those under 35, BIPOC respondents, and respondents with a disability are significantly more likely than their counterparts to report these behaviors. 18% of all respondents report deliberately viewing sexual deepfakes, most commonly due to curiosity according to both men and women respondents. These findings suggest that, in addition to working to prevent the creation of nonconsensual AI-generated sexual images, sociotechnical interventions are needed to address the seeming normalization of consuming these images. Potential legal, technical, and educational interventions are discussed.
