Nevada Synthetic Explicit Content law summary
Based on direct statute tracking.
Based on public records, Nevada criminalizes both AI-generated child sexual abuse material and non-consensual sexual deepfakes of real adults. SB 263, signed June 6, 2025 and effective October 1, 2025, expands the child-pornography statutes (NRS 200.700, 200.725, 200.730) to cover "computer-generated child pornography" — including a real child "created, adapted or modified" into a sexual depiction and images made "by the use of artificial intelligence" that are "indistinguishable from a minor" — carrying category B and A felony penalties. SB 213, signed June 5, 2025, widens the crime of unlawful dissemination of an intimate image (NRS 200.770, 200.780) to reach "photorealistic," digital, and "computer-generated" images that a reasonable person would believe depict a real, identifiable person, making it a category D felony to share such a fake without consent. As of July 2026 both laws are in effect.
