An in-depth police report obtained by 404 Media shows how a school, and then the police, investigated a wave of AI-powered “nudify” apps in a high school.
This is going to get pretty damn horrific real fast with Sora coming to general release soon. We need some restrictions and laws on the books.
What laws do you want?
How would they be enforced?
What practical effects would that have?
1.) Germany has civil laws giving a person depicted similar rights as the creator of an image. It is also an criminal offense publishing images, that are designt to damage an persons public image, Those aren’t perfect, mainly because there wording is outdated, but the more general legal sentiment is there.
2.) The police traces the origin through detective work. Social Cycles in schools aren’t that huge so p2p distribution is pretty traceable & publishing sites usually have ip-logs.
A criminal court decides the severity of the punishment for the perpetrator. A civil court decides about the amount of monetary damages, that were caused and have to be compensated by the perp or his/her legal guardian.
People simply forwarding such material can also be liable (since they are distributing copyrighted material) & therefore the distribution can be slowed or stopped.,
3.) It gives the police a reason to investigate, gives victims a tool to stop distribution
I can better explain what I don’t want out there, and we’ve already seen some pretty awful shit. This will usher in a completely new generation of CSAM, bullying, harassment, and political sabotage. It seems we should have some protections or penalties in place to cover such things.
Are current laws against harassment insufficient?
Correct. Most states' laws do not envision the situation we are currently seeing, let alone what's coming.
Check your state. What constitutes harassment, and can you think of harassing things that could be done without violating the law? I can for my state.
what are you, some kind of pedophile terrorist money-laundering drug dealer??
I kinda doubt porn would be a problem with Sora, just like it’s not a problem with Dall-e. The model is locked down in openai’s servers and open source model is no where as good yet. Even if there is a comparable downloadable models, it’ll be computationally expensive I doubt teens can freely run it.
open source model is no where as good yet
By the time a law would be adopted, it probably will be. I wouldn’t want to rely on the “kindness” of commercial entities as the sole protector of consumer welfare. We’ve seen how well that works with Google and Facebook.

For now, but with every new tech, hardware efficiency optimization is not too far behind. Especially considering the performance required for training != performance required for running/outputting.
Considering the glacier speeds our government moves, I’d bet on those hardware efficiency optimizations making it out before any significant law gets implemented.
Um… the Taylor Swift images were Dall-e.
Considering the restrictions they put on ChatGPT...
I’m so relieved to be an average or maybe slightly below average looking adult male with an established career. It would be hell being a teenage girl in today’s world.
Anyone have a way to get around their sign up wall? 12ft and archive didn’t work.

(That High School seems to produce a lot of news stories.)
I came to the comments hoping for the same thing.
And this is why I refuse to take part in selfie culture. Shit’s dangerous. When can we go back to the anonymous internet of yore?
AI should never have been allowed to get where it is without a system in place to control it. But that’s how these things work. So… no one should really be surprised that assholes will utilize for the the greater goal of worsening of civilization for their own amusement.

Wow I am so glad this shit wasn’t around when I was in high school. This sounds horrifying to have to deal with as a student.

The indifference of AI advocates is just apalling too. “It’s going to happen anyway, they just gotta get over it, it’s not real.”
Teens can barely get over mild perceived embarrassment, nevermind having porn replicas of them spread around, and having to deal with related harassment. I dread how that will affect them.

There was an article 2-3 months back about a small town in Spain being torn apart by this kind of thing and I braced as I knew it couldn’t be long. What a time to be a kid or parent.

Yep. My school years predate social media and mobile phones were pre smartphones. Shit cameras etc.
but the rumour mill was vicious and damaging. Very hard to prove the truth when the lie is so salacious. The more you denied it the more it seemed true.
These poor kids. How do they defend against this shit.

Just when I get the feeling kids these days are a little more tolerant than the last generation, NOPE! “Hey Chris! Watch this 5-min long video of our teacher taking a troll cock!”
