European Parliament To Vote On Clare MEP's AI "Nudification" Ban

A proposal spearheaded by a Clare MEP regarding AI-generated non-consensual intimate imagery could soon become EU-wide legislation. EU lawmakers have voted to support a ban proposed by Scariff Independent MEP Michael McNamara which would see applications allowing "nudification" prohibited. If a majority in the European Parliament vote next week to include the measure in the package of amendments known as the AI Act Omnibus, apps will no longer be allowed to facilitate the generation of nude photos or videos of a person without their consent. MEP McNamara has been telling Clare FM's Seán Lyons it's about establishing "uniformity" across the bloc.
