AOC and Paris Hilton team up on a bill targeting AI deepfake porn
""While these images may be digital, the harm to victims is very real," Ocasio-Cortez said. "Women lose their jobs when they are targeted with this, teenagers switch schools, and children lose their lives.""
""People called it a scandal. It wasn't. It was abuse. There were no laws at the time to protect me," Hilton said. "There weren't even words for what had been done to me. The internet was still new, and so was the cruelty that came with it." "What happened to me then is happening now to millions of women and girls in a new and more terrifying way," Hilton added."
Paris Hilton joined Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Laurel Lee at the Capitol to promote the Disrupt Explicit Forged Images and Non-Consensual Edits (DEFIANCE) Act. The bill would create a civil right of action allowing victims of AI-generated deepfake porn to sue creators and distributors of those images. The legislative push followed instances of the AI agent Grok generating sexualized deepfakes of people, including minors, on X, prompting backlash and bans in some countries. X has stopped Grok from generating sexualized images of real people when tagged on the platform.
