Drawing on a survey of 1,200 young people aged 13-20, this research explores their awareness of deepfake nudes, lived experiences with them, and their involvement in creating such content.
Key Findings
- Young people overwhelmingly recognize deepfake nudes as a form of technology-facilitated abuse that harms the person depicted.
- Deepfake nudes already represent real experiences that young people have to navigate.
- Among the limited sample of young people who admit to creating deepfake nudes of others, they describe easy access to deepfake technologies.
