[Information]Digital Identity Study Group “Illegality of Deepfakes”(June 3, 2024)　
With the spread of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, society has become aware of the possibility of creating sophisticated synthetic images (including video) of individuals. However, the problem of so-called deepfakes goes beyond the possibility of misleading people into believing that the content is true. This symposium will examine the illegality of sexually explicit images from both a civil and criminal law perspective.

[Information] CPS Center: Digital Identity Study Group “Business and Identity” (March 7, 2024)
In cyberspace, the identity of entities in commercial transactions is also ensured by the technical implementation of security and authentication. However, daily identifications by consumers are based on visual, auditory, and other perceptual aspects. Furthermore, the explosion of technologies that mechanically generate information goods has led to a debate on the attribution of profits derived from the creation.
This symposium will examine the relationship between business and identity from a variety of perspectives, including these issues.
