The Minnesota House of Representatives has passed a sweeping ban on AI-powered nudification technology, drawing rare bipartisan support while leaving one Republican vote standing apart. Lawmakers approved the measure this week in a bid to curb artificial intelligence tools that can generate fake explicit images without consent.
The bill moved through the chamber with unusual speed, a sign of growing alarm over how easily this technology can be used to exploit people, particularly minors and women. Supporters described it as urgent protection in a digital world that is moving faster than existing laws can keep up.
