This, as written -- the legislature's page which includes the text of the law and analyses done by legislative staff for legislators is linked in the article -- would cover that as well. While AI deepfakes are the main motivating issue prompting the revision of the states existing revenge porn law, the revision is not limited to them. It changes the existing law which covers nonconsensual distribution of intimate imagery (with speciied intent and knowledge) to expand the definition of intimate images from "a photograph, film, videotape, recording, digital picture and other visual reproduction" in which either the subject's "intimate parts are visible" or the subject is "engaging in sexual conduct" to also include "A digitally created, manipulated or altered depiction that is reasonably realistic."
Now, if someone does convicing fakery by analog means without digital tools, even if the appearance is realistic, it looks like it might still fall through the cracks, but that's probably not realitic a significant problem, and were it to become one its an easy fix.
