    It’s really cheap to use a WAN model (or whatever the latest thing is) on my laptop to make porn without needing to find and hire a model, or even subscribe to an onlyfans. Also not paying OpenAI or anyone else besides the electric bill.

    I don’t think that’s going away, and I would be a bit surprised if it’s not already cutting into demand for the real thing (which I also think isn’t going away)
