facing charges for creating and distributing explicit images of a woman without her consent using altered social media photos.<\/li>\n<li>Elliott is charged with two counts of distributing a private image, a misdemeanor under Alabama law, for taking and digitally altering photos from the victim\u2019s Facebook page to make it appear she was nude, then sharing these manipulated images.<\/li>\n<li>Cybersecurity experts highlight the increasing threat of cybercrime associated with the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence and the ease of access to online image-manipulation tools.<\/li>\n<li>Ragib Hasan, a cybersecurity expert from the University of Alabama at Birmingham, explains that there has been significant development in AI tools for face-swapping, making it easy for anyone to create realistic fake images and videos using publicly available social media photos.<\/li>\n<li>Hasan advises users to exercise caution when sharing personal photos online and to utilize privacy controls to limit exposure of personal content on social media.<\/li>\n<li>He warns that AI-generated content is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish from real images, posing risks beyond explicit imagery, including impersonation and scams in online communication.<\/li>\n<li>Authorities emphasize the importance of verifying identity and caution against the easy use of tools to impersonate or scam using AI-generated content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Center Point arrest highlights growing
