Google Updates Its Search Algorithm To Tackle AI Deepfakes
Wednesday July 31, 2024. 10:20 PM , from Slashdot
Google is updating its search algorithm and removal request process to make it easier for victims to combat unwanted sexually explicit AI deepfakes. 'When reported AI deepfakes are identified, Google Search will automatically filter out related search results that might pop up in the future so users won't have to repeatedly report similar images or duplicates of an image to Google,' reports PCMag. Additionally, Google will demote sites repeatedly hosting non-consensual deepfakes and aims to differentiate between consensual and non-consensual explicit content. From the report: Google says its Search algorithm update will lower the chances of explicit deepfakes appearing in Search. The search engine will also attempt to differentiate between real sexually explicit content made consensually (such as adult film stars' work, for example) and AI-generated media made without the person's consent. But Google says doing this is a 'technical challenge,' so these efforts may not be entirely accurate or effective. Regardless, Google claims that the changes it's already made to Search have reduced the resurfacing of such deepfakes by more than 70%. 'With these changes, people can read about the impact deepfakes are having on society, rather than see pages with actual non-consensual fake images,' Google said.
