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.

    How are the perpetrators victims?

    I could see an argument for someone in need of money making AI generated porn of themselves. Like, don’t judge sex workers, they’re just trying to make money. But taking someone else’s image without their consent is more akin to Tate coercing his “girlfriends” into doing cam work and taking all the money and ensuring they can’t escape. He’s not a victim nor a sex worker, he’s a criminal.

      Writing /s would have implied that my fellow lemurs don’t get jokes, and I give them more credit than that.

        I would love to assume Lemmy users are intelligent enough to realize text-only sarcastic jokes about sex criminals are almost never a good idea, but alas, I’ve been on the internet longer than two weeks.

          Some people just don’t have a sense of humor.

          And those people are YOU!!

          Thanks for the finger-wagging, you moralistic rapist!
