Photos of naked women topped with her own face: Franc-Comtoise Marion Navarro, 2nd runner-up to Miss France 2023, had the unpleasant surprise of discovering these photos when opening the Instagram application. Three crude montages made by an unknown person and sent to his subscribers. “I was going to an exam in Paris when I received messages from someone telling me that she had seen intimate photos of me,” says the young woman. I immediately posted a message on social networks to warn my subscribers! »

The finalist of the Miss France competition was in fact the victim of a “deepfake”. A system based on artificial intelligence which allows you to modify a person’s face by superimposing photo or video files. Applications are now specially dedicated to these tricks. The person behind this malicious act chose to take erotic photos and put Marion Navarro’s face on them. “I filed a complaint with the police and I took the opportunity to make a sort of denial on my Instagram page,” explains the Parisian student.

“It’s worrying to see what we can do with artificial intelligence. We need to raise awareness and educate about this phenomenon. Unfortunately, I am neither the first nor the last, it has already happened to many influencers on social networks, notes Marion Navarro. But what would be the consequences if this happened to a 14-year-old girl, especially if she is already feeling bad about herself or a victim of harassment at school? I think it could turn out to be dramatic. This is why we need to talk about it and not let these actions go unchecked. »
