The federal police union want a one-stop portal for victims, to report AI deepfakes to police, should be established.
The Attorney General, Mark Dreyfus, introduced legislation in Parliament in June, that will create a new criminal offence of sharing, without consent, sexually explicit images which have been digitally created, using artificial intelligence or other forms of technology.
The Australian Federation Police Association supports the bill and said, in a submission to a parliamentary inquiry, that the current law is too difficult for officers to use.
The AFPA said last year members struggled with existing laws to charge the first person to face prosecution for spreading deepfake images.
Victims can currently report to the eSafety Commissioner when an image of them, real or not, has been shared online without their consent.
However, the AFPA said this model should be overhauled to allow victims to report directly to law enforcement.
