United States of America: Bill prohibiting nonconsensual sharing of AI-generated sexual images (HB 1364) adopted by Oklahoma Legislature

On 30 April 2025, the Oklahoma Legislature adopted House Bill 1364 (HB 1364), which prohibits the nonconsensual sharing of AI-generated sexual images. The Bill now awaits the Governor’s approval. It amends the Oklahoma Law on Obscenity and Child Sexual Abuse Material to cover the dissemination of private sexual images, including those created or altered using artificial intelligence or other technical means. It introduces definitions for “artificial intelligence,” “generative artificial intelligence,” and “artificially generated sexual depiction.” The Bill makes it an offence to share real sexual images without consent where a reasonable expectation of privacy exists, and to share artificially generated depictions with intent or reckless disregard to cause harm. Exceptions apply for lawful criminal investigations, the reporting of unlawful conduct, voluntary public exposure, and other lawful purposes. Penalties range from a misdemeanour to a felony, depending on factors such as intent, material benefit, and frequency. The Bill is scheduled to enter into force on 1 November 2025.
