Using AI to Harass You

Someone uses AI tools to generate harassing content — fake images, fake audio of your voice, mass-produced abusive messages, or AI-written defamatory content about you.

What You Might Notice

  • Harassing content that seems AI-generated or mass-produced

    Messages, images, or posts that feel formulaic or are produced in large volumes.

  • Fake images or audio that look or sound like you

    AI-generated content using your likeness or voice.

  • Abusive content that's unusually varied or persistent

    The volume and variety suggests automated generation.

What You Can Do

  • Report AI-generated harassment to platforms

    Many platforms are developing specific policies for AI-generated abusive content.

  • Preserve the content as evidence

    AI-generated abuse is still abuse and can be reported to police.

  • Report to the eSafety Commissioner

    AI-generated intimate images or targeted harassment falls within eSafety's remit.
