Parents of three girls at a middle school in Goffstown, New Hampshire say eighth-grade students used artificial intelligence to create deepfake explicit images and videos of their daughters and shared them with others. The parents say the app needs only a picture of a person before it undresses them through AI. A student came forward after hearing the images were being shared among classmates, and the principal called the parents in early October. One parent said it took the district a month to tell families there was an AI problem at school. The superintendent's email cited legal and ethical confidentiality limits on sharing details of discipline and investigations. The parents want the boys held accountable and the district to teach students about the dangers of AI. Boston 25 News reported the account and did not receive a reply from the district.
