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.

This is actually an excellent way to trigger faster regulation of fakes. I applaud this.

You can't regulate something that takes desktop levels of power to make. What are you going to do? Arrest people in China, Russia NK, etc.? Societal change is needed, not regulation.

Societal change is needed, not regulation.

I agree on the regulation, but I don't think that society is likely to change. Are entertainers going to stop making use of sex appeal?

We could just...not lose our shit if we see slightly too much of someone's body.

An extra quarter inch of titty just isn't that big of a deal. We literally all have nipples.

Eh, sounds like not always.

Athelia is the congenital absence of one or both nipples. It is a rare condition.

Block their IPs. Keeps happening? Block their subnet. Of course taking this approach we may end up blocking all of Russia, China, NK, etc.

Nothing of value will be lost.
