18:01Now PlayingHome Secretary Yvette Cooper has spoken to Sky's Trevor Phillip about the dangers of AI when it comes to child abuse.
She says we need to strengthen the law and have stronger regulatory powers to tackle what she said was a "disturbing phenomenon".
She says online child sexual abuse material is growing as well as the grooming of children online.
"What's now happening is that AI is now putting this on steroids," she says, explaining that AI is making it easier for perpetrators to groom children, and manipulate pictures of children to "blackmail them into further abuse".
