Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
The article explicitly mentions that over 100,000 explicit deepfake images of Paris Hilton have been created by AI without her consent, which is a clear violation of her rights and causes harm. The AI system's use in generating these images directly leads to harm (violation of rights and harm to individuals), fulfilling the criteria for an AI Incident. The event is not merely a potential risk but an ongoing harm, and the advocacy and public speech are responses to this harm, not the primary event. Hence, the classification is AI Incident.
