- Today, we’ve filed a lawsuit against the entity behind CrushAI and are taking other steps to clamp down on nudify apps.
- We’re building new technology to detect ads for nudify apps and sharing signals about these apps with other tech companies so they can take action too.
- We have strict rules against non-consensual intimate imagery – whether it’s real or AI-generated – including the promotion of nudify apps.
This is a case where every other organism on earth, except for maybe the junk bug, looks at humans with a confused air of disdain. Like, why did you manufacture this intractable problem by mandating clothing and shaming nudity in the first place?
Don’t forget decorator crabs.
That is my culture. Why do you have so little respect for my culture as to think I should follow your values?
I have seen variations of this debate in letters from around 100. I’m sure it goes back much farther.
Culture is just that which a group says/does. If you value the well-being of humans then you can evaluate if an action is good or not. “Respect” of culture need not come into the solution of how best it is to act.
Why would anyone respect a culture?
“A bunch of people made a decision. Therefore you can’t question it”. Like… What?
That is what it means to be a liberal: you respect people who are different than you to as large an extent possible. (there are limits - I don’t respect cannibal cultures …)
Eh… is a human minimum to respect other people. But their actions are always to be judged against legality and morality.
So if your culture eats sauerkraut on cheesecake, that’s weird but I don’t care.
And if your culture trains women to be subservient to men, that’s weird and I’m judging you.
I thought they hopped on trumps post truth wagon and removed all the fact checkers, why are they making a fuzz about this specific topic?
It (nudify) makes AI look bad and is the leading example people are using when proposing legislation to regulate AI. If they can end this prominent thing, not only do they look like they’re fighting for the users, but they help keep the gvmt from meddling with whatever henious shit they want to do with AI (by removing the best argument the pro-regulation groups have right now)
Note: this is only the best argument they have right now because politicians will never be persuaded by people bringing up Palantir’s war crimes and will openly defy any constituents who are persuaded.
I think it’s more that it’s hard to explain why palantir’s war crimes are war crimes (to the average uninformed voter, to be clear. Information warfare, what an abstract concept), but “My Child’s Classmates Digitally Removed Her Clothes” is pretty easy to explain (and the country isn’t divided about pedophilia even being a crime…)
Can I sue meta for non consensual tracking and making it so I can’t even look at a picture 90% of the fucking time because it’s account gated to Instagram?
Meta is actually doing something positive for once.
I know everybody hates AI but to me it’s weird to treat artificially generated nudity differently from if somebody painted a naked body with a real person’s face on it - which I assume would be legally protected freedom of expression.
