Abstract

Harmful deepfakes can now be created quickly and easily by the average AI user, which introduces new opportunities for interpersonal harm and adds complexity to existing school conduct procedures. We partnered with nine public high school teachers to discuss the use of harmful deepfakes in schools, co-create use cases, and provide recommendations for policy, education and training, and design. Findings contribute to the emerging discussion of AI literacy and our collective understanding of an individual’s rights to their likeness and voice.
