Apps and websites that use artificial intelligence to undress women in photos are soaring in popularity, according to researchers.
In September alone, 24 million people visited undressing websites, according to the social network analysis company Graphika.
Many of these undressing, or “nudify,” services use popular social networks for marketing, according to Graphika. For instance, since the beginning of this year, the number of links advertising undressing apps increased more than 2,400% on social media, including on X and Reddit, the researchers said. The services use AI to recreate an image so that the person is nude. Many of the services only work on women.
These apps are part of a worrying trend of non-consensual pornography being developed and distributed because of advances in artificial intelligence — a type of fabricated media known as deepfake pornography. Its proliferation runs into serious legal and ethical hurdles, as the images are often taken from social media and distributed without the consent, control or knowledge of the subject.
By 2030 we’ll have AR glasses with cameras, microphones, speakers, and a built in AI assistant that will digitally remove everyone’s clothing in real time.
Shit, by 2030 we’ll have premium AR avatars, so you can make sure your AI nudes look good.
Okay, so we need to get unique codes tattooed onto our genitals. That way if your nudes show up, you can always know for sure if they’re real or fake (and, importantly, who tf leaked your nudes)
Public key in a pubic place?
Pubic key, clearly.
Or who knows, maybe nudity will cease to be taboo when everyone can see everyone else naked anyway.
