“criminalising digital tools that are designed solely to generate intimate images and videos.”
good luck with that one
It should be in a bid to *protect everyone* including especially women and girls currently most affected by deepfake images….
why are they splitting hairs as to who is protected? why not just protect everyone? Nobody wants to have their reputation ruined by deep fakes
*Boys, regardless of age or ability, have been determined unworthy of consideration or protection.*
Jfc. Protecting children isn’t anti-feminist, anti-woman, or anti-girl.
Men, of course, are entirely disposable. Apparently.
This is already effectively illegal under current laws. The only way to create a deepfake and not commit a crime is to never share or use it or to have the consent of the person to make said fake.
The only thing this law would actually change in practical terms is this:
>The consultation is also seeking opinions in regards to criminalising digital tools that are designed solely to generate intimate images and videos.
In other words, it’s a law to crack down on AI porn dressed up as protecting women and girls.
This is a bit tricky to prove legally surely?
When you make a deepfake of a girl or woman it’s not like the software sees through their clothes and can reconstruct their body.
It’s a bit tricky.
Genuinely thought it was already illegal.
Criminalising the software to generate these images is going to be very difficult as there are so many legitimate uses.
Forget just banning deepfakes for ‘intimate purposes’ – ban deepfakes entirely! There is NO good that can come from allowing anybody to create a video of someone saying or doing something that they did not do.
Deepfakes just add to the mistrust of the evidence of your own eyes and ears. It will cause nothing but harm.
More countrys need to start making laws for ai and imagine generation
We can only hope banning ai content all together becomes internet standard
it should be to protect *everyone* but other than that i definitely agree with this.
In the grand scheme of issues the government needs to tackle, this doesn’t feel like it should be near the top of the list.
People who want to harass others will unfortunately always look for ways to do it. If someone uses manipulated or fake images to harass, intimidate, or defame someone, then yes — that should absolutely be prosecuted. But those behaviours are already covered under existing laws. It’s not clear that creating a new, broad offence is necessary.
There’s also a genuine slippery-slope concern. If you make “deepfakes” illegal in a sweeping way, you risk capturing parody, satire, and legitimate political commentary. Not all deepfakes are sexual or malicious.
For example, would you classify the work of Cassetteboy as a form of deepfake? They manipulate real footage to make public figures appear to say things they never actually said — clearly for satirical purposes. Where would that sit under a blanket ban?
If governments were serious about this, they would target the AI models themselves, which are all made up of several large datasets, some of which include CSAM material. They should also investigate the tagging companies, normally outsourced to Africa and Asia – the people that work for these companies have reported feeling physically sick and suicidal at some of the images they have had to catalogue.
The models themselves should be illegal, simply because of IP theft from creators, but the whole CSAM/Porn thing is next level.
Good, we have to protect people from the misuse of AI deep fakes.
