I gasped. This is what will make it trivial to simply highlight a persons swimwear and tell the AI to remove.

Have you never used stable diffusion?

Today, as in right now, with less than 5 relatively not-horrible photographs you can create a realistic AI version of anyone to do anything you'd like them to, or wear. Animation included. From your home computer.

Or just inpaint the clothes away from any image.

Growing up in the age of generative AI is at least a big sea change as in the age of social media, or the internet etc.

This is a story of some 12year old kids doing it to each other in Spain. Another reason why kids should be off social media until they get a driver's license and parents own all data before they turn 18.

This has nothing to do with social media. The images have circulated through WhatsApp and Telegram channels. And if they hadn’t, they would have through email or MMSes.

Look, far from being morally offended by that, I can relate. In '92 - like 6th grade for me - a friend got one of those hand-held scanners for a Mac LE that let you drag it very slowly across the page and get a 300 DPI image into Photoshop v1. And we completely proceeded - as 12 year olds - to paste the faces of girls from our yearbook onto GIF files of porn actresses. That we downloaded at 2400 baud from BBS's.

That's what was going on in 1992.

I'm a little alarmed at the general laziness / lack of initiative of these kids today, TBH. but whatever.

Eh, at that point you might as well just get tickets for a burlesque show

That’s.. already happening
