SB 404 amends Tennessee law to expand the crime of unlawful exposure to include distributing digitally altered intimate images created or modified using AI, editing software, or other digital tools - with the intent to cause emotional distress. It directly affects identifiable individuals whose private images are manipulated and shared without consent. The law specifically targets images of intimate body parts or sexually explicit conduct that were altered via technology, making such distribution a criminal offense. The bill takes effect July 1, 2025, and applies to images created or modified using digital tools, not just original photographs.
