Elizabeth Lopatto at The Verge reports that Apple, Google, and xAI continue to host or tolerate apps generating nonconsensual, sexualized AI images, including depictions of minors produced at roughly one per minute. The author says mainstream coverage has not prompted platform action and criticizes reliance on companies rather than regulators. She argues platforms should remove mass-scale abuse generators and enforce content policies.
