- JKCalhoun 1y agoI suspect the "general public" won't see it that way. Many will find the allowance for a "spicy" setting kind of gross.
- Joker_vD 1y agoThis setting is put behind the age "verification".
- bananapub 1y agoit's a pretty reasonable position for someone to think "a company now sells a service that lets you generate fake porn of any human" is a bad thing and shouldn't be allowed, regardless of whether you make people jump through some notional age verification hope
- qualeed 1y ago>it's a pretty reasonable position for someone to think "a company now sells a service that lets you generate fake porn of any human" is a bad thing and shouldn't be allowed, There is a surprising number of people here on HN (and I imagine elsewhere) that think generating fake porn of real people without their consent is totally fine, if not their right to do so. You can see some of them cropping up in the comments here already.

- qualeed 1y ago>what about drawing a picture of your mum getting bukkaked? It's really weird that you chose to make your point this way instead of the hundreds of other ways you could have phrased it. I mean, it's obvious you're just trolling, so I'm not surprised. But I hope one day you think back on some of the things you typed out and cringe at how fucking weird it is.
- skeezyboy 1y agoso we can draw deepfakes then? just not digitally draw them?
- Joker_vD 1y agoSuch a shame there is no explicit and complete list of all rights, so that everything that's off that list is obviously prohibited.
- qualeed 1y agoI'm not really sure what point you're trying to make, but generating and distributing non-consensual nudes is already "obviously prohibited" (by law) in many jurisdictions. It is also explicitly prohibited by twitter's terms of service.
- miltonlost 1y agoAnd those people are why I wish this site had a block commenter ability instead of having to bother reading them
- JKCalhoun 1y agoThat makes sense. Thanks.
- bdisl 1y agoGood thing they are not forced to use the “spicy” setting.
- JKCalhoun 1y agoI wonder if they just labeled it as the "Show me porn" setting if all of this misunderstanding could have been eliminated.
- nickthegreek 1y agoI believe only 10% of the output was to that level of "spice". Which makes me question the intent of the "spicy" setting, unless it is just separate a fool from his money.

- somenameforme 1y agoCalling this "gross" infantilizes both you and the issue. People jerk off and fantasize about others, and this is obviously going to be a great tool for that. The obvious issue is a lack of respect for another person's privacy and dignity, which is interesting, but probably a losing battle simply because the demand is out there. I do not think a comparison to something like CP would be appropriate simply because CP is naturally repulsive for most people, whereas seeing an attractive celebrity naked is naturally appealing to most people.
- JKCalhoun 1y agoI chose "gross" because I suspected it would be a common reaction among many (not tech savvy) people. I'm not sure how I feel about pornography in general. I suppose I prefer that it not be main-stream though — preferring that it hang back with a kind of false modesty.
- somenameforme 1y agoThat would run contrary to my experience. I've found there to be a huge pseudo-morality obsession with things involving sex/gender among middish age tech types, which porn gets wrapped up in, whereas the average person (outside of those who take their religion seriously) tends to have a more liberal attitude towards it. But, that said, I actually agree with you. I'm certain that porn becoming so extremely main stream, to the point that pornhub's little audio theme or color scheme are essentially memes, is probably not a great thing overall for a healthy society. On the other hand I think it's probably inescapable. If one step's outside Western focused porn sites, there's a ton of porn even coming from places like Iran, literal morality police and Islamic fundamentalism notwithstanding. And I'm pretty happy with my relationship with porn, speaking as somebody married with children, so I don't see why that's unreasonable to expect of other people. Perhaps I'm simply falling into that 'middish age tech type' trap. --- As an anecdote, I remember one of my first computers was a (rather dated) original IBM machine with an integrated ~6 inch monochrome green screen. In learning how computers worked at the time I was running essentially every *.com file. And one of them was... yip, 'porn.' It was a program with an innocuous name, tucked in the operating system directory, that would display some rather nice boobs made out of ascii characters on a 80x25 character display. I enjoyed that program.
- cestith 1y agoSpicy is one thing. A fake nude is a violation of image rights and of bodily autonomy. It’d be different if there were real nude photos of her released out in the public with her permission.

- Barrin92 1y agoPersonality rights are a thing, publishing your likeness without your consent in particular in any commercial context is illegal in just about any jurisdiction on earth.
- olalonde 1y agoI meant from a moral perspective. I'm aware that it is illegal in some jurisdictions but this would almost certainly not be considered "commercial use" in the context of likeness (unless the author uses the generated picture in an ad, etc.).
- aredox 1y agoOf course you disagree, you are not the one being targeted. I wonder how long you would stand being impersonated in various situations. Or your parents. Or your significant other. Or your (adult) kids. Would you still tell them to their face there is "no violation"?
- TuringTest 1y ago> She asked for a “spicy” image and she got exactly that. But, but, what it just she wanted to see her in a Spice Girls costume??
