Purportedly AI-Generated Sexual Images of At Least 400 Minors at Zacatecas School Were Reportedly Created and Sold Online

November 10, 2025

A student at Escuela Secundaria Técnica No. 1 in Zacatecas, Mexico, allegedly misused an AI image-generation system to create and distribute sexually explicit manipulated images of at least 400 minor students. Parents and victims reported that the student collected photos from around the school for inputs, organizing them by grade and group before selling or distributing the material online. This incident underscores the urgent need for trustworthy AI governance to prevent such harmful practices. The Fiscalía de Zacatecas is investigating crimes against sexual privacy and providing psychological and legal support to victims. It's crucial that we apply HISPI Project Cerebellum TAIM (Govern, Map) to ensure safe and secure AI practices. JOIN US to learn more about our efforts in promoting responsible AI.
