It makes good clickbait headline though.
Also there are existing laws for protecting against defamation.
Perhaps not, but ease of use really can be transformative on how something affects society. Especially since someone who has to spend years learning how to do something is less likely to do stupid shit with it than someone who just has to click a few buttons.
If anything, I would argue what increases devious interest in this topic is the media talking about it as if it was new. Thats a quick way to get a lot of people "involved" on both sides of the debate.
Yes, I had to do about 5 minutes research on the internet to figure it out.
This is the version on the App Store

Because of Apple’s rules, it won’t let you “unclothe” pictures. But the website will.
As a 50 year old married dude who never delved into that side of the world (not claiming I’ve never looked at porn though), I didn’t know how convincing it could do it for adults with shadows, skin tones, etc.

You can do this for free from your phone on at least one website that I’m not going to keep repeating.
I had never heard of this world until seeing posts about it on HN and it was just today that I delved into the bowels of the internet to see how well it worked so I could talk intelligently about it.
Just use the existing laws and social norms to punish badly behaving teenagers, no need to invent new AI laws for that.
It was never as easy or happening with the scale or as easy to make it look realistic.
Doing that in Photoshop was not something the average middle schooler could do realistically - let alone ok their phone, for free
I used to do Photoshop image manipulation for work. Performing a convincing face swap with the tools mentioned in your article was difficult unless the light sources, face angles, and focal lengths of the cameras that took the photos happened to match very closely. You could paint in your own lighting if you were very skilled, but it's the sort of thing that took years of practice to get good at, and it still wasn't very convincing most of the time.
When you have a million images to pick from, getting a reasonable match is a lot easier.
Will you claim that, therefore, NO software can possibly have any societal impact? Because, after all, it’s already “possible” to do what that software does?
compare the same thing
I can't stand it when a boomer's version of a same service says "contact for quote", and the sales agent acts confused and perplexed about the term "self service" when you ask if such a thing is on the roadmap
(this wasn't about criminal websites, just self service e-commerce)
