If the AI crime bill fails, the future generation will be at risk of becoming victims of teen deepfake pornography.

The Take It Down Act, a bipartisan-led bill, was unanimously passed by Senate lawmakers. This legislation requires social media companies to quickly remove sexually explicit deepfakes, prevent their posting, and make the act of creating them a crime.

For victims of deepfake pornography, such as 15-year-old Elliston Berry, the measure would be long overdue.

A Texas high school student is collaborating with lawmakers to pass a bill that safeguards victims, like herself, who have experienced the devastating effects of deepfake nude images being circulated online. Inspired by her own harrowing experience from last year, she is determined to make a difference and protect others from the harm caused by cybercrime.

"On "Fox & Friends" Thursday, she remembered how a classmate took an innocent photo off her Instagram and used an editing tool to remove her clothing before sending it around the school."

"My friends and classmates were targeted, and because it happened to so many girls in my grade, we were able to recognize the fake picture and go to the school to try to do something about it."

Nine months elapsed, with assistance from Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, before the images were removed.

According to Cruz, if you tweet a song from 'The Lion King' today, social media will remove it within hours due to copyright laws.

"Each tech company has an office dedicated to removing deepfakes. If someone is being victimized by fake photos, videos, or lies, they should have the right to remove the abuse from online platforms."

The Senate has unanimously passed the bipartisan effort led by Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., and Cruz, which now heads to the House of Representatives.

Berry hopes to see lawmakers pass the bill before Christmas, while Cruz is calling on the House to act on it before the end of the month.

The speaker urged the House to pass the bill to protect people, emphasizing the future generation's risk and the many victims who cannot speak for themselves. She emphasized the urgency of passing the bill as soon as possible to protect the people.
