Like many stars, Kristen Bell has been a victim of deepfakes, these videos where editing and artificial intelligence experts use the face and voice of an actor on another body to make him say or do what they want . Except that in the case of the actress of The Good Place , these malicious hackers used her face on images of pornographic film.
I reached out to ~ 40 celebrities for my piece on deepfake porn. no one wanted to talk about it. and I didn't really expect them to.
goal Kristen Bell did.

"I was shocked because it is my face. It's something that belongs to me. It's so hard for me to tell myself that I am being exploited, ”she said in an interview with Vox.
Responsible and caring
According to People , 96% of deepfakes are actually pornographic videos, which according to the actress, poses a real problem while the #MeToo movement has replaced the question of consent at the heart of public debate. “For some time now, there has been a huge discussion on consent, that's why it doesn't seem normal to me. Even if you say "it's not really her", it's hard to think like that. I would really like the Internet to be a little bit more responsible with this sort of thing and people to be more caring, "she said.
Of the 40 people interviewed by Vox reporter Cleo Thompson who interviewed Kristen Bell, the star is the only one who has agreed to speak on this thorny subject. “I think it is important not to ignore these red flags in our society. When new technologies arrive, I think we're screwed up if we don't recognize that they can be problematic, ”concluded Dax Shepard's wife.
