Forsén stated in the 2019 documentary film Losing Lena, "I retired from modeling a long time ago. It’s time I retired from tech, too… Let’s commit to losing me.
From Wikipedia
She was a paid model, so I don’t consider the usage unethical based on that. But I like this comment from a journal:
In today’s age of high-resolution digital image technology, it seems difficult to argue that a 512 × 512 image produced with a 1970s-era analog scanner is the best we have to offer as an image quality test standard".
Lmao, they do have a point though!

I mean, this puts into context that the standard probably should have been some kind of test card like this :

Culture wars = mostly bullshit distractions.
ricecake@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
Yeah, those woke culture warriors at the … IEEE … distracting us from … Something… by asking academic researchers to … Refrain from using a specific cropped pornographic image that the model has asked people to stop using.
Those bastards.
MotoAsh@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Not just distraction. Distraction with a very nefarious purpose.

Naw, they’re excellent for determining which kind of people are controlling manipulative monsters!

I don’t know that she actually did. Most recent statement I can find from her is 2019, and she essentially says that she thinks it’s time to retire the image.
EmDash@lemmygrad.ml 6 months ago
She has since asked for the image to no longer be used, “I retired from modeling a long time ago. It’s time I retired from tech, too. We can make a simple change today that creates a lasting change for tomorrow. Let’s commit to losing me.”

Good for her. :)

Forsén redid the shoot some 50 years later, producing a (worksafe) image of a grandmotherly woman wearing a hat and smiling. Perhaps using this updated image would be a reasonable compromise?

What do you have against John Cena?
bhamlin@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Two words: group shot.

If they put the model in a tutu, they could've made the Lena Cena Ballerina.

What the hell is sex-positive?
yamapikariya@lemmyfi.com 6 months ago
They tested positive for sex unlike you probably
Real answer: Sex positivity is an attitude towards human sexuality that regards all consensual sexual activities as fundamentally healthy and pleasurable, encouraging sexual pleasure and experimentation
Classy@sh.itjust.works 6 months ago
So why is the consensual photography of a nude model for sexual enjoyment not considered a sex-positive act?

It’s corporate speak for “It’s no longer hip and cool to objectify women”.

If this is real, anybody got an arxiv link?

Whoa, a person with 50% opacity?! Diffusion models are falling off.

Lena Cena is pretty funny but these people sound insufferable.
mihor@lemmy.ml 6 months ago
I wholeheartedly agree.
