Giorgia Meloni will testify at a court in the Sardinian city of Sassari in a bid to send a message about the problem

Italy’s prime minister is seeking €100,000 (£85,374) in damages after deepfake pornographic videos of her were shared on the internet.

‘Deepfakes’ are images or videos where the face of one person, in this case Giorgia Meloni, is digitally put onto the body of another.

Two men accused of making the videos, a father and son aged 74 and 40, are being investigated.

    The difference is kinda the same. You could’ve paid someone to photoshop shit too, now you pay for some dubious “AI” services instead of setting them up yourself, which is a major difference in difficulty and would quickly take away the illusion of the whole “AI” magic.

    Either way, I don’t really care. Let them do it. As long as they don’t use it to make money or for things like blackmail or harassment it should be up to them what they jerk off to. I doubt the fascist melon experienced much if any actual damage from that. She literally did not give a shit about the depictions of her as a fascist but somehow some bad deepfake porn videos are crossing the line. Yeah… Right…
