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.

    That seems fairly evident

    Hardly. There wouldn’t be much debate about it if it was, would there?

    You were fine engaging fastfood until I pointed out it, like AI " art " was terrible. Only then did you deride the metaphor as off topic.

    Alright, in future I will try to remember to immediately reject any metaphors you bring into play rather than attempt to engage with them.

      Sure there can be. People debate crypto being good and that’s roundly recognized as ecocide. People “debate” who counts as people all the time. People can be wrong and loud.

      Not saying you have to do that, but if you don’t it’s rather untoward to bring it up later as though it’s a problem.

        Ethereum switched to proof-of-stake a year and a half ago, it no longer has a significant environmental impact.

        Oh wait, this is an analogy, isn’t it?

            No, just pointing out who’s in the “loud but wrong” camp on that one. If ecological concerns are why you think crypto is bad, well, that’s not clear cut any more.

            You want to keep going with this analogy you brought up, then?

              I’m not the one who claimed they were off topic. I’m the one who was right about generative " art " being a god-damn scam. Easy mistake to make I suppose.

                All analogies eventually fail when you dig into them far enough, by nature of what an analogy is. That is, an analogy is not exactly identical to the thing being analogized. If you want to be able to use analogies but refuse to acknowledge that they eventually lose relevance when you stretch them too far then you’re simply not amenable to reason.

                And then you go and explicitly beg the very question under debate with an “of course I’m right.” No, AI art isn’t a “scam,” whatever you mean by that.
