From Rosalía and Taylor Swift to European parliamentarians: no one is safe from the misuse of AI

Recent research reveals that 46 female Members of the European Parliament have fallen victim to AI-generated deepfake pornography. This alarming trend highlights the misuse of technology against women, including celebrities like Rosalía and Taylor Swift. The issue extends beyond entertainment figures, as one in six euro-deputies has experienced similar violations. Activists are calling for stricter regulations against such applications, emphasizing the need for consent regarding women's bodies. The rise of deepfake technology has made it easier to create convincing fake images, leading to significant public and personal harm. The situation has prompted discussions on ethical guidelines for AI use in media.
