由 AI 报道
Governor Gavin Newsom signed two new laws on Monday to protect children from harmful AI technologies, including companion chatbots and deepfake pornography. The measures require safety protocols for bots and increase fines for nonconsensual AI-generated explicit images to $250,000 per victim. Both laws will take effect on January 1, 2026.
