|
10.0
The U.K. government announced Thursday that laws criminalizing creation and supply of online sexual images without consent will come into force on Feb. 6. The move follows global backlash after xAI’s Grok was used to generate thousands of sexualized deepfakes, including images of children, and accompanies an Ofcom investigation and potential fines up to 10% of qualifying global revenue. The changes also target 'nudification' apps.
