The European Union (EU) called on Facebook, TikTok and other social media sites on Tuesday to crack down on artificial intelligence deepfakes ahead of European elections in June.

European researchers earlier this month approved landmark AI legislation – the Digital Markets Act – to govern AI content on major social sites.

Under the law, it identified 22 social sites, including Snapchat, Instagram, YouTube and X, formerly Twitter, as being “very large” sites.
