Digital identity protection is hitting a 2025 turning point. • NO FAKES Act now backed by Google, OpenAI, SAG-AFTRA • LinkedIn rolls out C2PA authentication • 68% of deepfakes nearly indistinguishable Here's why. #DigitalIdentity #ContentAuthentication #AIEthics www.linkedin.com/pulse/digita...

“Tech and music industry leaders testified about the dangers of deepfakes made with AI on Wednesday, urging lawmakers to pass legislation that would protect people's voices and likenesses from being replicated without consent, while allowing use of the tech responsibly.” #AIEthics

“AI-driven fraud is like on the rise. Deepfakes, once stuck to damaging videos affecting celebrities and average citizens alike, are now like advanced enough to happen in real time.” #AIEthics

Listening to the story just now and especially considering our own debates in this country on AI I think a lot of guidance can be taken from the actions #sagaftra on deep fakes and other issues at stake in the House of Lords right now .. #bbcwomanshour #lawsky #wato

David Do from Toronto, drives a Tesla and is paid $121,000 a year as a hospital pharmacist.

➡️ Artificial intelligence was a major factor in the actors strike of 2023 and the burgeoning technology will remain a key element in next year’s negotiations. ➡️ #SAGAFTRA chief Duncan Crabtree-Ireland has laid out some of the guilds plans ahead of its contract with the studios expiring in June 2026.

“We need strong regulations and protections in place to safeguard artists when people try to steal their work and pass it off as their own using artificial intelligence,”“This bill was made to clarify existing law using language approved by both #SAGAFTRA and the #MPA #AIEthics

➡️ London Mayor Sadiq Khan says deepfake audio of him supposedly making inflammatory remarks before Armistice Day almost caused "serious disorder". ➡️ Mr Khan says the law is not "fit for purpose" in tackling AI fakes, as the audio creator "got away with it". #AIEthics

“Adobe is releasing a web tool to let creators attach content credentials to all image files, even if they are not created or edited through its own tools. Plus, it’s providing a way for creators to signal to AI companies that they shouldn’t use that particular image for training models.” #AIEthics

Stage to startup: Deepfakes created the problem. We're building the antidote. #PixelProof #DigitalIdentity #OnChainAuthenticity #EthicalAI #Ethereum #Layer2 @protectdid.bsky.social

Just returned from the Internet Identity Workshop in San Jose where experts tackled protecting digital IDs in the AI era. It seems folks were not yet incorporating likeness, voice, and movement. It was a pleasure to speak on this in front of a great group. www.protectdigitalidentity.org

One crosswalk button that was hacked to sound like Musk said: “I guess they say money can’t buy happiness… I guess that’s true. God knows I’ve tried. But it can buy a Cybertruck and that’s pretty sick, right?”

“Ireland's privacy regulator launched an investigation on Friday into how social media platform X has used Europeans' personal data to train its artificial intelligence model Grok.” #TechSky #AiEthics

To protect all individuals likeness from unauthorized use.

➡️ Copyright does not extend to purely AI-generated material, or material where there is insufficient human control over the expressive elements ➡️ According to the Copyright Office, there’s simply too much work being done autonomously between the prompt and the output to consider it made by a person

Miyazaki himself has decried AI’s use in art — “I strongly feel this is an insult to life itself,” he said in 2016, non-gently, a point that when juxtaposed with so many people unleashing the tool in homage to his work turned their act hilarious and a little cringe. #AIEthics

EXCLUSIVE: ➡️ YouTube has stopped two major fake movie trailer channels from being able to monetize their AI-fueled videos. ➡️ Turning off ad revenue on Screen Culture and KH Studio trailers after a Deadline investigation chronicled the scale and sophistication of their output.
