Paris Hilton joined Representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Laurel Lee to support a bipartisan bill that would make it easier for victims of nonconsensual AI-generated pornography to sue. The bill passed the Senate by unanimous consent, and the representatives said they expect House Judiciary Committee action.
Hilton spoke outside the U.S. Capitol in support of the bill alongside its co-sponsors, New York Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Florida Republican Laurel Lee. The bill passed the Senate by unanimous consent; Ocasio-Cortez and Lee said they were optimistic the House Judiciary Committee would take it up before a full House vote.
Ocasio-Cortez said the creation of sexualized images without consent can cause real harm and cited the spread of AI-generated images and harassment. Hilton recounted that an intimate video of her was shared without her consent when she was 19, and said there were more than 100,000 deepfakes of her online as of Thursday.
