What happened

Two second-year junior high school students in Heraklion, Crete took photographs of female classmates and female teachers, passed them through an AI platform, and converted them into nude images.

Some of the photographs were reportedly taken during a school trip outside Crete the previous week. The students circulated the images among themselves, and the images eventually reached the victims.

Reported impact

The school atmosphere became 'heavy' following discovery of the incident on Monday, 16 March. Female classmates and female teachers who saw their innocent poses transformed into inappropriate imagery were in poor psychological condition.

Governance controls

The two students confessed to their actions. School educators were attempting to determine how to handle the matter educationally.
