I can run these models on my local machine. It’s not even a complex model.
This lawsuit is targeting the profiteers because that’s the only reasonable recourse for an individual.
The criminal side of things is something a prosecutor needs to handle. Making this a priority becomes a political situation because it requires specific resources.
Maybe we need to start pointing out it didn’t make people naked, it just fits a naked body it saw in training under the person’s head. It’s Photoshop but faster.
Right, and the people disseminating and hosting the tools tailored to criminal harassment should be held accountable, and the people hosting the resulting images. All of these people have their own revenue that can and should be disrupted.
they’re not really tailored to that… also, it wasn’t hard to photoshop naked pictures that long ago.
but now these “tools” are neural net models… there are thousands of them hosted on dozens of source code repositories… and like op said, you can run it on any high end gaming gpu.
you can’t outlaw source code like that.
you could sue this one app maker and try to require that they prove consent and detect underage photos… totally a good idea, but it would do little to stop it…
they’ll just use a different app
i think they could prosecute the other people making and distributing the pictures though.
not trainers…
people who host services that advertise “make any photo naked!” and have little to no safeguards against non-consensual or underage images, yes….
i mean, if they train the model ON child porn, then yes… but otherwise it’s not the model trainer’s fault.
There is no way back on that.

Not exactly. Head swaps have been a thing for a while.
These models match the body shape. They are essentially peeling back the layers of clothing. The thinner those layers the more accurate it can be.

I can easily get a rock from the woods, but if I use one to break someone’s fingers, I should be prosecuted.
Except yeah, in this case we should go after the entire chain: AI trainers, hosters, users and their supplementary industries.
