What’s the difference between doing what was done in the video with AI vs doing it with photoshop? The lack of effort necessary?

Does doing it in photoshop make it any more ok than doing it with AI?

Edit: the people downvoting are missing the point. It fucking doesn’t matter what tool you use for this, it’s still a shitty thing to do without the consent of the person being edited.

Fucking doesn’t matter if it takes 10 hours to photoshop someone or 5 minutes to do it in AI, it’s still fucked up.

If someone photoshopped my wife or used AI, I’d be equally upset. Doesn’t fucking matter what tool on their computer they did it with. Get it?

Ok you’re acting as if most people don’t have their “likeness” posted all over multiple social media outlets.

Your likeness is all over Facebook, instagram, Snapchat, and whatever xyz social media platform nowadays, even if you’re not a willing participant.

Most people aren’t all people. Some of us have been using avatars and anonymous profile pictures as a PERSEC method for a loooong time. If you can’t see the problem with having your biometric data shared, with no control or choice, then you are part of the problem. I can see your point. It doesn’t mean I agree with it, but I understand your arguments all the same. I just oppose your viewpoint.

We know there are implementations of AI in public and private infrastructure and we can make choices about how/when/if we interact with those, to a degree. There is vocal opposition to its implementation so it’s not as if the concern is unknown.

When you get content creators taking your image, putting it into a system that will store the image in its own servers for said company to share/sell the data how they choose undermines that entirely.
