Pornographic deep fakes of Taylor Swift emerged on social media.

The scourge of pornographic deepfake images generated by artificial intelligence has prompted calls for better legislation as fake images of singer Taylor Swift flood the internet. 

Key points:

• One sexually explicit image of Swift was viewed 47 million times before the account was suspended, The New York Times reports
• Reports show AI deepfakes are overwhelmingly weaponised against women
• The White House says it was alarmed about the images and would "do what we can to deal with this issue"

 

The non-consensual and sexually explicit artificial intelligence (AI) images of Swift began circulating widely this week on the social media platform X.

One image shared was viewed 47 million times before the account was suspended, The New York Times reports. 

Swifties quickly mobilised with the hashtag #ProtectTaylorSwift, and some said they were reporting accounts that were sharing the deepfakes.

Deepfake-detecting group Reality Defender said it tracked a deluge of AI pornographic material depicting Swift, particularly on X.

Some images also made their way to Meta-owned Facebook and other social media platforms.
