Polish authorities struggle with legal framework to combat AI-generated deepfake content, as recent cases reveal enforcement gaps.
Law Enforcement Challenges
Recently, there was a high-profile case involving the generation of an AI and publishing of a nude image of a schoolgirl. Law enforcement initially refused to initiate an investigation in this case.
They changed their minds only after an intervention by the President of UODO.
Financial Fraud Concerns
Another problem with deepfakes is financial fraud. The image of known people is often exploited by scammers to create advertisements encouraging investment.
The problems described were discussed at a recent conference organized by the Office for Personal Data Protection.
