Type: article
Abstract: The widespread use of deepfake technology becomes apparent on a global scale, with a significant presence of adult women in the industry highlighting its extensive use. Using Kantian framework, this study explores the ethical violations of deepfake technology in the adult entertainment industry focuses on the challenges of creating explicit content without consent, recognizing the need for transparency, accountability for non-consensual content, and raising public awareness. The study used the Error Level Analysis technique to detect potential deepfake manipulations in digital images. Using a qualitative methodology, we surveyed only male participants to understand their perceptions towards deepfake technology. The findings revealed concerns for non-consensual content creation, privacy, and individual rights. Future works suggest the need for enhanced regulatory frameworks, content moderation measures, and industry-wide guidelines to address the ethical dilemmas arising from deepfake technology's rapid progress.
