PM Modi: In a virtual speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged the media to educate the public and stated that the use of artificial intelligence to create “deepfake” content is harmful.
The prime minister warned that people and the media should exercise extreme caution on the use of artificial intelligence for deepfakes while speaking to journalists during the BJP’s Diwali Milan event at the party’s Delhi headquarters.

According to PM Modi, he’s instructed the ChatGpt team to identify deepfakes and alert users when they come across such films online. He said, “During the times of Artificial Intelligence, it is important that technology should be used responsibly.”
In addition to advising victims to “avail remedies provided under the Information Technology rules,” the Centre has recommended victims to submit police complaints.
A video that appeared on social media recently showed actress Rashmika Mandanna’s face morphed into the body of another lady, sparking uproar. Zara Patel, a British-Indian social media star, was shown in the original footage inside an elevator while sporting a black sports onesie. Artificial intelligence was used to alter Patel’s look in the popular video so that it resembles Mandanna.
