AI incidents

Reports of AI-related harm and adverse experiences affecting people’s safety, wellbeing, rights and livelihoods. Explore what happened and the evidence available.

NOPE’s core concern is when AI communicates with a person, acts on their behalf, or depicts or impersonates them. The tracker is wider: it also records consequential decisions and claims about people. Each account is reviewed for publication; claims may remain uncorroborated or disputed.

Livingston Parish, Louisiana: sheriff's office says a woman first treated as a victim made the AI-generated nude photos and videos, rape threats and extortion attempts in an online threats case

On 24 July 2026 WBRZ, WAFB and the Livingston Parish News relayed a Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office (Louisiana) statement about an investigation into threats made by phone and online. The sheriff's office said one alleged victim was threatened with rape and other bodily harm unless money was paid, AI-generated photos and videos of one of the victims were sent to numerous family members and friends, and later threats included getting one victim fired. Homeland Security assisted after allegations that overseas suspects were involved through past relationships and acquaintances in Greece. The sheriff's office said subpoenas and search returns from platforms led back to a woman who had first been treated as a victim, and that after an interview with the woman the sheriff's office learned the woman made all of the fictitious accounts, the AI-generated nude photos and videos, the rape threats and the extortion attempts. The accused was booked on charges that include unlawful dissemination of AI nude photos, online impersonation and five counts of extortion, and was released on bond. The Livingston Parish News says the accused and one other person had reported as victims some or all of what the sheriff's office attributes to the accused. The charges are allegations and no conviction is reported. The AI tool is not identified, the victims are not described and the start date of the threats is not stated.

Baton Rouge, Louisiana: police obtained an arrest warrant for a 55-year-old Pierre Part man accused of using AI to make nude images of a female co-worker and a simulated sex video of the two of them, and showing them to her on his phone during a shared commute

According to a Baton Rouge Police Department arrest warrant reported by WAFB, Louisiana First (Nexstar), The Advocate and WBRZ, a woman told police on 8 September 2026 that a 55-year-old co-worker from Pierre Part, with whom she had been commuting to and from work, showed her on his phone several artificially generated images depicting her nude and an artificially generated video depicting the two of them engaging in simulated sexual intercourse. She told police the depicted sexual activity never happened and that she never consented to the creation or use of her likeness; she recorded what he showed her on her own phone and gave the recording and text messages to police. Investigators say they found AI-generated nude images of her and other images showing her and the man in sexual situations, and that in texts he said he had deleted the material from his phone and from cloud storage connected to the website used to create it. The woman also told police he had previously expressed romantic or sexual interest in her. A warrant was issued on one felony count of unlawful deepfakes under Louisiana law. The tool used is not named and the accusations have not been tried.

AI involvement reported · Causal attribution alleged · 4 sources, 1 underlying account · Added 29/09/2026

Cases may have several effects and sources. Mixed accounts qualify when they include a reported harm or adverse experience. People are counted within individual cases where sources support a number; we do not publish a collection-wide total of distinct people.

A source’s existence, the experience it reports and AI’s causal role are separate questions. A lawsuit records allegations unless a subsequent finding establishes them.
