AI-powered deepfake nude websites are targeted by San Francisco city attorney's lawsuit
Briefly

San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu announced a lawsuit against 16 A.I.-powered 'undressing' websites for distributing deepfake nude photos, aiming to shut them down and raise awareness about sexual abuse.
Chiu described the process on these websites: users upload fully clothed images, and A.I. simulates nude versions without consent, effectively creating pornographic images and violating laws.
One site blatantly promoted its nonconsensual content, suggesting users could bypass the effort of dating by using it to obtain nude photos without consent, highlighting the predatory nature of such platforms.
The rise of accessible A.I. models has led to the creation of apps generating deepfake nudes, affecting a notable number of women and girls, often without recognition or recourse.
