It absolutely is a crime in many jurisdictions.
- mbrumlow 25d agoAre you sure? What if I painted the image , but happen to have a photo realistic capabilities ?
- whattheheckheck 25d agoIgnorance of the crime isn't excused BTW. You do have a flake chatbot to ask the law about
- mbrumlow 25d agoThe only people being ignorant at the ones saying deepfakes are illegal. It’s more complicated than what is being touted as fact. In most jurisdictions creation is legal, it’s publishing them that is not. In some jurisdictions threatening to publish them is also illegal. Most jurisdictions that have a creation policy apply to doing deepfakes they sexualize minors, which likely would have been illegal to possess under other laws. Then we have a consent issue. Creating and publishing them could be entirely legal if the subject consents to such. So yah. It’s not “deep fakes are illegal, let’s arrest everybody !!!” To be clear, creation is likely legal, publishing not so much. Additionally, intent is important with regard to AI hacking.
