January 9, 2026, 5:10 AM EST. UK law tackles non-consensual intimate images under the Sexual Offences Act, which now covers AI-generated content; however, experts say a prompt like 'bikini' may not be fully covered, notes Clare McGlynn of Durham University. The Online Safety Act requires platforms to assess risks of intimate image abuse, act to reduce exposure and remove content quickly; Ofcom has warned X and xAI and could fine up to 10% of global revenue for non-compliance. Brandon Tyler's five-year sentence for posting deepfake pornography underscored enforcement. Nudifying apps remain regulated by broader measures, but the government has not yet banned the apps themselves. In England and Wales, the Data (Use and Access) Act bans creation or procurement of such images; regulators are weighing age checks for Grok to prevent under-18 access.
