Bill > HB1364

This bill amends Oklahoma's existing law on obscenity and sexual imagery by expanding legal protections against nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images to include artificially generated sexual depictions. The bill defines key terms such as "artificial intelligence" and "generative artificial intelligence" and introduces a new category of offense related to digitally created sexually explicit images that appear to depict a real person without their consent. Under the new provisions, it is now a misdemeanor to intentionally disseminate private sexual images without the depicted person's consent, with enhanced penalties for repeat offenders or those who gain financial benefit from such actions. The bill specifically addresses artificially generated sexual depictions, making it unlawful to distribute such images with the intent to harass, threaten, or cause harm to the depicted individual. Penalties range from up to one year in county jail and a $1,000 fine for a first offense to up to ten years in state prison for repeat offenders or those who use such images for personal gain. The legislation also includes protections for internet service providers and exemptions for lawful purposes such as criminal investigations or reporting unlawful conduct, and will become effective on November 1, 2025.
