 Dolly Parton returns to public eye to celebrate opening day at Dollywood     Dolly Parton made her first public appearance in months to celebrate the opening day of Dollywood in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, on Friday. The country music icon reflected on the past year, a year after the death of her husband of nearly 60 years, Carl Dean, saying she is “doing good” and has been working to rebuild herself spiritually, emotionally, and physically after grieving and dealing with health issues that kept her from touring. Joined on stage by Dollywood president Eugene Naughton, Parton brought her trademark humor to the crowd, joking about rumors of a new husband while reaffirming her devotion to Dean. She also shared updates on her ongoing projects, including a new Broadway musical and her Dolly’s Life of Many Colors Museum in Nashville. Parton previewed the park’s 41st season, highlighting the upcoming NightFlight Expedition ride, a new “Run Dollywood” race weekend, an updated ...

GENERATING SEXUAL IMAGES OF SOMEONE WITHOUT THEIR CONSENT, INCLUDING THROUGH THE USE OF AI, WILL BECOME A CRIMINAL OFFENCE IN THE UK THIS WEEK. (PHOTO).



Generating sexual images of someone without their consent, including through the use of AI, will become a criminal offence in the UK this week. 


Science and Tech Secretary Liz Kendall made the announcement on Monday, Jan. 12, after widespread anger over pictures made using Elon Musk’s chatbot Grok. 


Male users of Musk’s  social media site X have been asking the AI software, Grok, to remove the clothing from an image of any person – with women and children among the targets. 


Two UK cabinet ministers had also been victims of the twisted trend. Kate Middleton was also a victim of the AI undress. 


Musk later changed the rules so only verified users of the Grok service – whose real identities were attached to their accounts – could generate deepfake images. 


But he also made light of the behaviour by generating an image of Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer in a bikini, and suggesting the limitations were an attack on free speech. 


In the UK House of Commons yesterday, Jan. 12  Kendall said a criminal offence of generating s£xual images without consent would be brought into force this week.

It would come under the Data (Use and Access) Act which was passed by Parliament last year. 


So-called “nudification” apps are also due to be outlawed in the flagship Crime and Policing Bill which is currently moving through the parliamentary process. 


That legislation will also block companies from supplying the tools to create non-consensual images, which Kendall said would tackle the issue “at its source”. 


She did not specify which day this week the new criminal offence is due to come into effect.
