Nova Scotia to expand protections for people affected by AI-generated intimate images
The Nova Scotia government says new legislation will expand protections for people affected by intimate images created or altered by AI without their consent.
Nova Scotia is set to expand its protections for individuals impacted by AI-generated intimate images. The province's government introduced a new bill on Thursday that amends the Intimate Images and Cyber-protection Act. Provincial Justice Minister Scott Armstrong stated that the proposed changes would remove the requirement for victims to demonstrate that intimate images were shared without their consent.
This amendment could simplify the process for victims seeking a court order to have such images removed. The legislation also includes other amendments aimed at enhancing public safety, such as modernizing 911 services.
