The female prosecutor has called on her colleagues to sue to shut down 16 of the most popular deepfake 'stripping' websites.

According to the lawsuit, these 16 websites had up to 200 million visits in just the first 6 months of 2024. One of these websites even made an extremely cheeky advertisement: 'It's a waste of time to invite her. What's the point of going on a date when you can use this website to create nude pictures of her.'

The AI models running these websites are trained on pornography and images depicting child sexual abuse. If deepfake images are spread on the Internet, it will be extremely difficult to determine which website created them.

As alleged in the lawsuit, these websites violated state and federal laws regarding pornography.

The situation of deepfake AI being abused to create nude images without the permission of the person in the image has appeared since 2020 and caused victims to go through extremely terrible things.
