Trolls have flooded X with graphic Taylor Swift AI fakes (www.theverge.com)

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.

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 !taylorswift@poptalk.scrubbles.tech 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.

We’ll just see about that.

Are you going to somehow reach into my personal computer and remove the software and models from it?

[–] theforkofdamocles 4 points 10 months ago

Could be. My tines are ever dangling.

Neuromorphic hardware is coming to some future gen phones to allow training custom sophisticated models.

Indeed we'll see... the rest of the iceberg.
