Artificial intelligence is at the centre of a criminal case in Queensland, where police allege a 52‑year‑old man used AI to create explicit posters falsely presenting real women as sex workers and displayed them in public places, exposing the victims to years of harassment and distress.

Investigators say the posters were not limited to fake images. Police allege they also carried the women's real names, social media usernames and employment details, making it easier for strangers to identify and contact them. Authorities believe eight women aged between 40 and 60 were targeted in a campaign detectives say lasted more than five years.
