Vicky Pattison Produces Deepfake Porn Video for Channel 4 Documentary on Image-Based Abuse
The reality TV star aims to highlight the growing dangers of deepfake technology and advocate for stronger protections for victims.
- Vicky Pattison, known for her appearances on reality TV, has created and released a deepfake pornography video of herself as part of a Channel 4 documentary airing on January 28, 2025.
- The video uses AI technology to superimpose Pattison's face onto an actor's body, aiming to simulate the experience of victims of non-consensual deepfake content.
- The documentary explores the spread of such content online, the challenges of removing it, and the emotional toll on victims, including interviews with public and private figures affected by image-based abuse.
- Pattison's initiative comes as the UK government moves to criminalize the creation and distribution of sexually explicit deepfake images.
- The project seeks to raise awareness about the abuse of deepfake technology, push for stronger laws, and encourage tech companies to take greater responsibility in addressing this issue.
