I can't imagine the difficulty of resolving this, especially since most of the AI models are available for free use.

Yeah it's a ~~chimera~~ hydra, similar to illegal movie streaming sites. Unless they solve it at the AI engine level, they're just chasing ghosts.
Do you mean hydra?
Shit, my bad. Yep I meant hydra. I need to brush up on my Greek mythology.
You won't prevent it without (or even with) unacceptable restrictions on free speech. Those models have a right to exist.
But you can raise the barrier to entry so people will need to run their own service to do it. You'll make a crazy dent in middle school kids spreading fake nudes of their classmates if they can't just use a managed online service.
New ones maybe. The current ones are out there and won't go anywhere.
It's a hydra. It's effectively impossible.
This is a dog and pony show. Between the unlikelihood of a municipality holding any sway over an internet site, it completely ignores the futility of trying to close the Pandora's box that is AI imagery. I can download half a dozen deepfake video models that would run on a home server, let alone still imaging.
This about the level of technological savvy I would expect from a city councillor.
Predictions:
Men: "I didn't film gay porn, that's a deepfake." The issue is dropped.
Women: "Those videos you're sharing aren't real, use my image without my consent, and I want them removed." She is called a slut.
Got any examples of this that didn’t happen in your head?
Predictions:
San Francisco and the whole internet police?
It’s an Herculean effort and sadly there’s no way to close the box now, but every bit helps.
Oh thank Satan it’s just the women and girls. How else can a gay man with a fetish for twinks in clown costumes have any fun without AI generated porn.
(humor)
Good for San Francisco.
We need a very low barrier of entry to generate gay porn from a single image of a male before this problem will be taken seriously.
