Quoting a Mastodon post by GrapheneOS:
"The app doesn't provide client-side scanning used to report things to Google or anyone else. It provides on-device machine learning models usable by applications to classify content as being spam, scams, malware, etc. This allows apps to check content locally without sharing it with a service and mark it with warnings for users."
Google's official statement about #AndroidSystemSafetyCore is here: security.googleblog.com/2024/1….
TL;DR: Yes, it does client-side scanning for nudity, but it only notifies the user. It does not (according to Google) notify anyone else. This is unlike the Apple thing, which scanned for CSAM in particular and then sent anything it identified to the government.
Of course Google might be lying, but that's always the risk of a closed OS. This changes nothing.

🚨BREAKING: Google will soon install an app called #AndroidSystemSafetyCore
They say it's a "safety measure" to protect your #privacy, but in fact it's client-side scanning.
Yet, we all know that client-side scanning is bad: tuta.com/blog/eu-client-side-s…

You remember #Apple scanning all images on your #mobile device?
If you have an #Android #phone, a new app that doesn't appear in your menu has been automatically and silently installed (or soon will be) by #Google. It is called #AndroidSystemSafetyCore and does exactly the same - scan all images on your device as well as all incoming ones (via messaging). The new spin is that it does so "to protect your #privacy".
You can uninstall this app safely via System -> Apps.
