The generative AI in the story is not distributed deepfake of a person. The ambiguous case is that which may be something which has none of the qualities which make deepfake porn found online not so ambiguous. Users of the service being criticized may not be distributing anything, and they may have generated images which bear no resemblance to any specific person. Or for that matter they may not even be pornographic, in simple terms. The reason we should have a nuanced discussion as a society about these things, is precisely to distinguish—if we so choose—between such distinct cases.
