The state has already passed legislation dealing with nonconsensual pornographic deepfakes, but these measures would go further, placing requirements on AI image generators.

Other bills would allow individuals to sue deepfake generator sites for unauthorized use of their image (HB 421) and update the state’s existing ban on nonconsensual explicit deepfakes to include still images (HB 449).
