Users were prompting Grok, the platform’s built-in AI feature, to “nudify” women’s images.

That reluctance only heightens the risks of Grok’s “nudifying” capabilities. “When one company is able to do something and is not held fully accountable for it,” Winters says, “it sends a signal to other Big Tech giants that they can do the next thing.”

Ok, there's actually a bit to unpack there...

Free fake porn of anyone

This isn't actually the problem. You know that, right? If I generate a fake image of you in the nude and just keep it to myself on my own hard drive that has no impact on anything. It harms no one. It's no different than drawing your picture and keeping it in a drawer.

Also, fake porn is still porn. However, mere nudity is not porn. For something to be porn it has to be a sex act. I know a lot of people think that's untrue but it's reality. Nudity is not porn! Is it an "adults only image"? Maybe. But porn? Not necessarily.

Example: The New York Times had a famous front page image featuring a little girl who tore her clothes off, running away from napalm in Vietnam. Definitely not porn.

People who associate nudity with porn need to get their minds out of the gutter.

Also, I really, really need you to explain what "true porn" is. Give me your expert opinion!

"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
