You can argue its slander and libel, but where does that fall into AI? What’s the line? What if I make a joke song with someone’s voice? What if I make a joke video that has them doing horrible things? What’s the line?

Trashing someone's reputation I would imagine, especially if they're a public figure that relies on their reputation monetarily.

These laws require that there is intent to cause harm to a reputation

How do you deal with cases where these AI cause damage financially but you can't prove or prosecute on intent?

[–] CosmicCleric@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

IANAL, but not asking for permission to use their image/persona shows intent?

So any and all memes made with someone's face are illegal?

I think the dividing line is if the purpose was to make income or just do satire.

But having said that, it's a Brave New World we are all moving into.
