AN ACT relating to crimes; expanding the crime of unlawful dissemination of an intimate image to include certain acts relating to the distribution of certain photorealistic images, digital images, computer images and computer-generated images; providing an exception to the crime of unlawful dissemination of an intimate image for persons who are less than 18 years of age; revising the definition of "intimate image"; providing penalties; and providing other matters properly relating thereto.

In one paragraph

Nevada SB 213 brings AI deepfake nudes within the intimate-image law. "Intimate image" now includes photorealistic, digital, computer and computer-generated images that a reasonable person would believe show an identifiable person nude or in sexual conduct, and the public-figure exclusion is removed. Knowingly distributing such an image, made so it would be believed real, without the person's consent and with intent to harass, harm or terrorize, is a category D felony. Minors are exempt and offenders do not have to register as sex offenders.
