A longtime Metro Nashville Public Schools teacher, Mario Mumphery, has been fired after dismissal records allege he used artificial intelligence to alter photos and videos of students without their consent.

According to district records, students told investigators the AI-generated content made them feel "extremely uncomfortable." The records also include allegations involving communication with students outside school hours.

The Metro Nashville Board of Education voted unanimously to terminate the teacher. The Tennessee Department of Children's Services confirmed it is actively investigating the matter.
