<p>The actor expressed his worries about the possible risks of deepfake technology and how, in the era of the Internet and social media, abuse of this technology might result in negative material and put people in danger in a lengthy letter posted on his X, which was once Twitter.</p>
<p>“I strongly support Rashmika, who is one of the many victims of the deep fake controversy video,” the actor stated on Twitter. The Movie Artiste Association (MAA) is very alarmed by the improper use of technology to produce such damaging material. MAA is working together with legal and AI specialists to provide thorough guidance on how to deal with and prevent these problems.</p>
<p>He continued, saying, “Rashmika’s situation emphasizes how vital it is to solve these issues, and MAA will lead the battle against such videos while attempting to shield performers from being taken advantage of by AI technology. contacted organizations in the nearby states to talk about this as well. Protecting the health and dignity of our industry professionals is something we take very seriously.</p>

<p>Rashmika took a strong stance against the viral deepfake video of her and wrote a lengthy statement on social media shortly after it went viral. She wrote, “I feel really hurt to share this and have to talk about the deepfake video of me being spread online.” Since technology is being overused these days, not only am I terrified of anything like this, but I think this is terrifying for all of us as well.</p>
<p>since a woman and an actress, I am grateful for my family, friends, and well-wishers today, since they serve as my safety net and support network. If this had occurred to me in high school or college, however, I don’t think I could have handled it. Before additional people become victims of identity theft like this, it is imperative that we confront this as a community and with haste, she said.</p>
