Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Govt to tech firms

 

Rules on deepfakes likely in 7-10 days, Centre tells tech firms  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Extract:

 

In response to the increasing concern over deepfake technology, the Indian government has informed tech firms about the imminent introduction of regulations within 7-10 days.

 

This decision followed a meeting that was convened specifically to address the challenges posed by deepfakes, a problem that has gained significant attention from the administration in recent times.

 

The move reflects a proactive approach by the government to tackle the evolving landscape of misinformation and fake content, particularly in the digital realm.

 

With deepfake technology becoming more sophisticated and accessible, the need for regulatory frameworks to curb its misuse has become paramount.

 

This forthcoming set of rules is expected to provide guidelines and restrictions aimed at mitigating the adverse effects of deepfake content dissemination.

My Take:

 

DeepFake News: Here is how to Control…….23/11/2023

 

"Reflecting on my blog post from 2023, where I suggested strategies to combat deepfake technology, it's gratifying to see the government taking concrete steps today.

 

Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw's proactive stance against deepfakes aligns with the need for stringent measures to address this growing threat.

 

My proposal to tackle fake identities on social media channels seems more relevant now as the government gears up to regulate deepfake dissemination."

Dear Narendrabhai, Are You Next in Line?......23/04/2024

 

"In my recent blog post, I highlighted Prime Minister Narendra Modi's concerns about the potential misuse of deepfakes.

 

His call for a robust AI framework resonates with the upcoming government regulations on deepfakes.

 

As leaders discuss dos and don'ts for deepfakes, it's crucial to heed Modi's warnings about the deceptive capabilities of this technology and emphasize the importance of safeguarding against its misuse."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Call to Action:

 

To the Indian government and tech firms involved in shaping the upcoming regulations on deepfakes, I urge a collaborative effort towards creating comprehensive guidelines that not only address the current challenges but also anticipate future advancements in deepfake technology.

 

Let's prioritize transparency, accountability, and user protection in the digital sphere to combat the spread of misinformation effectively.
