Sexually explicit AI-generated images of Taylor Swift have been circulating on X (formerly Twitter) over the last day in the latest example of the proliferation of AI-generated fake pornography and the challenge of stopping it from spreading.
X’s policies regarding synthetic and manipulated media and nonconsensual nudity both explicitly ban this kind of content from being hosted on the platform.
Just look at Facebook, yesterday I was spammed by sites with AI fakes of Scarlett Johansson, reported them all, this morning Billie Eilish with biiiig boobs in suggestive positions, reported, now I’m being bombarded by Alexandra Daddario obvious fakes, it’s getting ridiculous
I haven’t seen any of this, and Google knows I’m a big old perv.
Have you guys considered
Uhhhh
Not being on Facebook and Twitter?
Wow this is going to be interesting from multiple fronts for me especially.
First, I’m a huge swiftie - and Taylor is probably not going to take this lightly. Who she’s going to target will be a more interesting question. (Shameless plug for [email protected] if you want to join our small community)
Second, as a nerd who has dabbled with generated art - thank you trolls for ruining it for all of us. This is just going to beg for regulations that is going to ruin the generative AI world - as if we didn’t have enough regulations barreling towards the area with copyright issues.
Third, as someone who hates Musk - I hope everything focuses on him and the platform formerly known as Twitter.
In doesn’t matter. Sophisticated models are open-source and have already been forked and archived beyond all conceivable hope of regulation. There’s no going back.
