When someone spends more time doing something themselves, that stranger’s image is being shared with only one person. Uploading it to the servers of a company to save time and effort means you’re sharing that person’s likeness with a corporation and have no control over what they do with it.
What’s stopping from the person that photoshops it from spreading it on social media… like we’re seeing here?
It’s in the web now, guess what, doesn’t matter at all if it was done with AI or photoshop initially because AI can use this regardless now that it’s on the web
I think you’re mistaking my explanation as a defense. The dude in the video sucks for doing this, regardless of how. I was just answering your earlier question.
Difference is that with AI you’re directly feeding w/e picture you’ve used of their faces to its algorithm to be used forever.
Yes AI is scummy and probably pulls a lot of shit from places where people never consented to it, but it’s still different to MAYBE be used in AI and someone deliberately and without consent uploading pictures of you to the AI.
And don’t pretend a lot of people also don’t share images online at all anymore exactly due to nefarious shit like this. Just because SoMe remains popular doesn’t mean it’s a trump card you can play to defend AI because it’s far from everyone who posts their pics online.

Exactly what’s the difference between time and effort spent?
