Minnesota Legislature Bans AI Deepfake Nude Tools, Penalties Up to $500K Per Violation

According to Decrypt, on May 2, Minnesota's legislature passed a bill prohibiting websites and apps from providing AI tools that generate realistic fake nude images of identifiable individuals. The measure, sent to Governor Tim Walz for signature, bars platforms from allowing users to access "undressing" generation tools and restricts related advertising. Violations carry civil fines up to $500,000 per incident, with proceeds supporting victims of sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse. If signed, the law takes effect August 1, 2026, applying only to violations occurring after that date.
