The first lady Melania Trump is expected to speak publicly on Monday, for the first time since her husband returned to functions, highlighting her support for a bill aimed at protecting the Americans against deep pornography and revenge.
Trump will hold a round table on Monday on Capitol Hill, according to the first lady’s office, to highlight the act of “withdraw”, which stimulates the protections of the victims of non -consensual sharing of sexual images, including the content generated by artificial intelligence, also known as the Deepfake porn.
During the last year, the targets of non -consensual pornographic images generated by AI came from eminent women such as Taylor Swift and the representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to high school students.
The bill, presented by the republican senator Ted Cruz of Texas, “would criminalize the publication of non -consensual intimate imaging (NCII), including the NCII generated by AI (or” deep fake pornography “) and require that social media and similar websites have procedures in place to delete such content during a notification of a victim,” according to Cruz’s office.
He adopted the Senate with bipartisan support during the last session of the congress and again in February, but has not yet succeeded in the room. Cruz and a bipartite group of legislators, including Democratic Senator Amy Klobuchar from Minnesota and the representative of the representative of Madeleine de Pennsylvania, supported the effort, and the First Lady now provides support.
During the first term of President Donald Trump, Melania Trump unveiled her “best” platform, which included the emphasis on online security. She said in an interview shortly before the November elections that she was interested in invigorating these efforts, and suggested that she could take “new problems”.
“Children suffer. We have to help and educate them, “she told Fox News in October.
