About this episode

The Albanese government will this morning introduce news laws to parliament banning the non-consensual sharing of deepfake pornography.

Those caught sharing sexually explicit images that have been digitally created using artificial intelligence or other forms of technology could find themselves facing a six-year prison term - but is the government fighting a digital runaway train?

Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus KC joined Bension Siebert to explain what impact he thinks the governments proposed new laws will have.
