Billionaire Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company is suing the state of Minnesota over a first-of-its-kind law banning technology that allows users to create fake photos or videos of people naked without their consent.
The bill, known as HF 1606, was signed into law by Gov. Tim Walz earlier this year and is set to go into effect Saturday. It bans “nudification,” or the use of artificial intelligence to digitally alter or generate photos or videos to make real people look like they are naked or engaging in sexual acts without their consent.
