Cindy Bautista-Thomas, assistant professor of Social Work, spoke to Telemundo about the psychological and emotional harm AI-generated images and "deepfake" videos can cause, especially to children and adolescents—sometimes with tragic consequences. The interview follows proposed legislation to criminalize the circulation of such non-consensual images, and a roundtable discussion featuring Texas Senator Ted Cruz (R), Melania Trump, and victims of deepfake imagery.
