Oversight Board’s recommendations on Meta’s AI labelling raise questions for India’s deepfake rules

It also told the company to lower the threshold for applying ‘high risk’ labels to manipulated media, add a click-through screen before viewers see them, and penalise accounts that repeatedly share them.
