Resumen
The present study aimed to analyze how artificial intelligence can facilitate the production and distribution of child sexual abuse material. The scope of the study was descriptive, adopting a qualitative approach, and the research design was non-experimental cross- sectional. The selected sample comprised documents, agreements, laws and books related to the subject matter; the sampling method was non-probabilistic and qualitative data collection instruments were used in the conduct of the study. The results demonstrated the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in the criminal sphere, as well as the lack of efficient legislation at both national and international level, even though initiatives addressing these matters have been explored in both contexts, along with an analysis of how these crimes operate. In conclusion, the paper highlighted an increase in the prevalence of crime, emphasizing the complexities of combating it without a clear and robust regulatory framework. This study also underscored the risks posed by social platforms lacking appropriate restrictions. Mutual collaboration among governments, organizations, companies and society is key to address these crimes, and the implementation of preventive strategies is fundamental to mitigate risks and safeguard minors in digital environments. The findings presented in this paper emphasize the need for a regulatory framework that addresses child sexual abuse material preventively and reactively.
