CORRIE bosses are lining up their first deepfake porn plot.
Abi Franklin — played by Sally Carman, 42 — becomes the victim of sex tapes doctored by AI to look like her.
The X-rated content is sent to her garage boss, Tyrone Dobbs, played by Alan Halsall.
The plot comes after celebrities including singer Taylor Swift have fallen victim to deepfakes.
A source said: “Scriptwriters are always keen to reflect what’s happening in the world.

“Abi was caught up in the dark world of drugs and is desperate to find out who’s behind the videos. It’s awful as they look so real.”
A Corrie spokeswoman declined to comment.
Earlier in the week, Corrie fans slammed the soap after they teased yet another affair on the show.
Many fans appeared to be at their wit's end with the ITV programme amid Toyah Battersby's current storyline.
Coronation Street viewers were already up in arms about the highly controversial dead baby plot which kicked off on-screen last night.
Now, amid the shocking storyline, a brand new affair for Toyah and her brother-in-law Nick has been teased after she confided in him about her dead child.
The two embraced with a hug and shared a moment which saw them almost kiss which has prompted speculation that the two could be headed for an affair.
However, fans have appeared to react in disgust as they berated the soap for rehashing boring plots as they picked up on its recent declining quality.
