Artificial Intelligence has a dark side
What Nobody Is Talking About Is How Generative AI Can Produce Realistic AI Porn
AI porn can’t be too far behind
There is an AI tool for that, it is a line from a newsletter that I follow. Because every day there is a new AI tool to help us become more productive or do the job faster and better.
A few days ago, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff announced it is investing in Hugging Face, an AI company that has become the GitHub for anything AI.
It started as a chatbot app for teenagers in 2017.
With the latest round of financing, Hugging Face is now worth $4 billion, not bad for a cute-looking emoji.
And with everything that comes with new technology, there’s an industry that always becomes the first to take on what technology has to offer and it is no other than porn.
Before everyone became accustomed to using their credit cards to purchase anything online, porn websites were the first to offer credit card payments.
The most visited websites in the world are porn sites.
How people consume porn had changed because of technology, and there is no doubt that porn would adopt and use artificial intelligence.
Generative AI
What is generative AI?
Generative AI refers to deep-learning models that can generate high-quality text, images, and other content based on the data they were trained on. — IBM
Any content that AI can produce using what it learned from its training data can be considered generative AI.
By now most of us are familiar with how ChatGPT can write about anything, every day, the tool keeps on evolving and can now generate not only original content but more complex outputs that only need a good writing prompt.
And writing prompts for NSFW images can’t be too far behind.
So a deep search on the web would help you find an AI tool that will create AI-generated porn.
I am using a tool that with the right writing prompts can create sexy images, not necessarily porn but I found myself using the tool for hours and days trying to perfect the kind of images that I fancy.
“Muscular angels.”
While it is hardly porn by any standards, I found myself drawn to improving the writing prompts to create sexier images.
Although the AI tool would sometimes block or label the image it produced as NSFW or blur it.
The same goes for other mainstream tools, like Dall-E, Leonardo AI, and Midjourney.
But there are tools already in the market that are capable of doing much more, and it is where the problem lies as everything can be done in the privacy of the person who is creating the AI-generated porn.
While there are no laws to govern AI porn and since the images are not of a real person, it could be a gray area where no harm, no foul rule apply.
But let us not forget the training data that AI ingested to have the capability to produce images came from images of real people.
Final words
Many jobs will be lost because of AI, and many jobs will be created because of AI.
As with the porn industry, there is no doubt AI will displace real people, some of whom have found a haven on OnlyFans an adult website masquerading as a tech company.
Or artificial intelligence will open more markets for the kind of porn people will be consuming in the future.
AI generative porn will cater to all kinds of people, and all types of fetishes. It is not hard to find something for everyone. A quick search on Google will show that there is already a growing market for “AI-generated hentai.”
In a few more months these AI tools will become more powerful, and soon it would be harder to distinguish what AI has created and what is real.
There is nothing much we can do, as long as many companies like Salesforce see opportunities in AI companies like Hugging Face it won’t be long before we see more investors putting in more AI companies even the ones that will be used to create adult content.
Regardless of where we are heading, even reconstructing training data from trained neural networks would erase any trace of the original training data of how AI can produce real-life images.
The images we get from generative AI will always have their origin from someone real, and we can’t deny that AI porn may appear real because these images are inspired by real people.
