Tell Congress to banDeepfake Porn
Deepfake porn is becoming increasingly dangerous.
Congress must take action.
The rapid increase of deepfake technology is opening up new avenues for blackmail, extortion, scams, and misinformation. As of 2019, 96 percent of deepfakes on the internet were nonconsensual pornography. Deepfake pornography uses artificial intelligence to transplant a person’s face onto a sexually explicit video or image. For example, a student who was upset at his teacher used an artificial intelligence application to edit her face on the body of a woman in an adult film. The teacher lost her job as a result. Some deepfakes are used against celebrities and public figures but many others are used against everyday people and even children. Right now, there are no laws banning the creation or distribution of deepfake porn. Until there are consequences, deepfake pornography will continue to increase. Congress needs to take action immediately. Full letter here.
