EU Parliament Agrees to Ban Non-Consensual Intimate Deepfakes in AI Legislation

On March 11, EU lawmakers reached a political agreement to amend the AI Act by explicitly banning AI-generated intimate images created without consent. This legislative change is a response to the recent Grok scandal and was driven by a coalition of 57 European Parliament members advocating for stronger protections. The update highlights the EU's commitment to regulating AI technologies to prevent misuse and protect individual privacy.
