Tracker: State Legislation on Intimate Deepfakes

Share

The rapid development of AI technology and lack of sufficient regulations has resulted in an exponential rise in the circulation of non-consensual intimate deepfakes. These deepfakes are fabricated using AI technology to falsely depict a real person engaging in a sexual act.

Intimate deepfakes cause serious harm to victims, who report experiencing significant emotional harm and trauma, as well as damage to their reputations and careers. The vast majority of the victims are women and children. 

State legislatures across the country are working to address this growing problem by passing legislation to regulate intimate deepfakes, usually with bipartisan support. The table below illustrates which states have put forth legislation to regulate intimate deepfakes and where the bills currently stand.
