Today we’re bringing you a story out of Germany. Unless you’re tapped in to German celebrity culture, you won’t have heard of any of the people involved. And I will say now, the details are distressing. But we still think it’s worth discussing, because this story could have happened anywhere, to anyone. And that’s because it involves sexual AI deepfakes. Here’s what to know about the deepfake scandal making headlines in Germany. 

Hosts: Lucy Tassell and Emma Gillespie
Producer: Rosa Bowden
