‘IRL Fakes:’ Where People Pay for AI-Generated Porn of Normal People
A Telegram user who advertises their services on Twitter will create AI-generated porn of anyone for a price, and has also targeted minors.
A Telegram user who advertises their services on Twitter will create an AI-generated pornographic image of anyone in the world for as little as $10 if users send them pictures of that person. Like many other Telegram communities and users producing nonconsensual AI-generated sexual images, this user creates fake nude images of celebrities, including images of minors in swimsuits, but is particularly notable because it plainly and openly shows one of the most severe harms of generative AI tools: easily creating nonconsensual pornography of ordinary people.

God, generative ai is such a fucking caustic technology. I honestly don't see anything positive and not disgusting enabled by this tech.
Edit: I see people don't agree, but like why can't ai stick to translating stuff and being useful rather than making horrifically unethical porn, taking the humanity out of art, and replacing peoples jobs with statistical content generation. I hate it here.
You can call people disgusting over what they do with a tool, but the tool itself is just a tool, it can't be disgusting
The distinction is that I can see worthwhile use cases for non-generative ai, and not for generative ai, and generative ai is built on theft of creative labor
I'm not angry at people who use generative ai, I'm angry at the people who built it by stealing from creatives to build a commercial tool that can seemingly only be used in awful ways.
That I can understand
i liked ai when it was a bunch of researchers messing around, but commercialized ai is horrifying.
