Paris Hilton joins House advocates behind deepfakes bill

Supporters of a Senate-passed bill that would allow individuals to sue over nonconsensual intimate depictions generated by artificial intelligence urged the House on Thursday to take action on the legislation.

Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Laurel Lee, R-Fla., held a news conference with reality TV personality and activist Paris Hilton and said that progress is being made in conversations with House leadership.

The bill would also allow for suits for possession or production of deepfake porn if there was also intent to disclose the images. The legislation is known as the Disrupt Explicit Forged Images and Non-Consensual Edits, or DEFIANCE Act.
