Summary

The Digital Dignity Act adds new rules that make AI services and large online platforms responsible for protecting a person’s voice, image or likeness when it is reproduced by generative AI. It gives individuals the right to have unauthorized digital replicas removed, and it creates civil damages and penalties for companies that distribute such replicas knowingly or recklessly. The bill aims to curb fraud, defamation and non‑consensual intimate content created with AI.
