Massachusetts: Experts say that the problem of online harassment of women has become serious after the revolution of artificial intelligence.
Once upon a time, digitally altered images and videos of women were usually the dark corners of the internet, but now that generative AI tools such as Midjourney, Stable Diffusion and DALL-E are within the reach of the general public, inappropriate fake videos of women Or creating and distributing images has become easier.
According to tech experts, more than 90 percent of deepfake videos online are porn-based, with the majority of women.
Although Google, YouTube and the Meta platforms have updated their policies and instructed their creators and advertisers to label all AI-generated content, Roman Chaudhary, an artificial intelligence expert at Harvard University, said: However, more responsibility in this regard would have been placed on women who need to be careful and take immediate action if someone sees inappropriate content against them.
A recent executive order by the US focuses on addressing the threat of fake AI-generated images/videos, while the EU’s proposed AI Act calls for greater transparency in the technology.
Last month, 18 countries, including the United States and the United Kingdom, signed an agreement to protect the public at large from the misuse of AI, which aims to prevent its misuse, including fake photos or videos.
