Taylor Swift searches have been reinstated on social media platform, X, after a temporary block due to a surge in AI-generated deepfake images. The move was prompted by explicit content circulating on X, triggering concern from users and legislators. X's head of business operations, Joe Benarroch, assured continued vigilance against such content. US lawmakers, including Representative Joe Morelle, advocate for immediate legislation criminalizing deepfake creation. While Swift's team considers legal action, the incident sparks a broader conversation about regulating AI technology and safeguarding individuals from non-consensual deepfakes.
