The FTC’s AI portfolio is about to get bigger

The FTC is expanding its enforcement of AI misuse, including nonconsensual deepfakes and scams, under the Take It Down Act. The law allows criminal prosecution and take-down notices for AI-generated harmful content, with the DOJ securing its first conviction. The FTC plans robust enforcement, targeting companies like xAI’s Grok tool, which has been used for deepfake pornography.
