Deepfakes of her any anyone have existed for awhile. There are paid services. /r/ exists (and has existed long before deepfakes) where people make requests of deepfakes of their high school classmates. Heck, bubble images have existed for forever and are definitely legal as all they do is leave it up to the imagination - quite effectively. The recent Swift incident only seems noteworthy because many people were introduced to a cyber subculture of which they were previously unaware. But this subculture is 20+ years old. Anecdotally, when I caught wind of the incident on /g/ a few days ago and saw some of the ridiculous muppet-swift images, I got a chuckle and asked my wife if she had heard of the swift news. She's usually "in the know" with pop culture because she listens to JJR. To my surprise, not only had she not heard of it, but she was appalled and became very upset about the obviously AI generated image I showed her. She couldn't fathom someone generating such content. Even having the idea to generate such a thing seemed to break her world view. For me it was just another rule 34 chuckle.
