In response to the growing concern over deepfake technology, particularly its use in creating non-consensual pornography, U.S. lawmakers are taking steps to address the issue. Representative Joe Morelle announced upcoming legislation aimed at making the creation and distribution of deepfake pornography illegal, highlighting that 96% of deepfakes are non-consensual and primarily target women. A new bipartisan bill, the No AI FRAUD Act, has been introduced in Congress to protect individuals from AI-powered impersonation, with a focus on a variety of harms caused by deepfakes. Public discussions and expert consultations, including a session on preventive measures against privacy breaches by cybercrimes like deepfakes featuring experts Dr Gulshan Rai, former National Cyber Security Coordinator, and Subimal Bhattacharjee, Consultant on Cyber Issues, are taking place to tackle the challenges posed by this technology. The sentiment across the globe and political spectrum is largely in favor of banning non-consensual deepfakes, with calls for concrete and enforceable laws to rein in the technology and protect individuals from its threats.
