  • 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.

Meta is actually doing something positive for once.

It’s not for the right reason…

Beta was better than VHS, but Beta didn’t have porn, so everyone got VCRs.

Meta is so big they could get sued for letting users openly make porn like this, but they don’t want everyone using the ones who can make porn. Because that’s the biggest threat to their advantage in the market.

If Meta thought they could get away with it, they’d dive dick first into porn.

Beta most certainly did have porn. VHS’s advantage was that it had a longer record time (therefore more porn).

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.

Warl0k3@lemmy.world on 13 Jun 21:39 collapse

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…)

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.

You think humans invented clothing because of shame?

That’s completely backwards, we invented clothing for protection, and not seeing everything all the time led to shame when someone could see us.

Like, I’m pretty sure hermit crabs feel something similar to shame when they don’t have a shell, they need something to drive them to not only protect themselves, but to ensure they can reproduce and raise their young. That’s why humans instinctually get weird about exposed genitals and boobs, those are the most important parts of a human from an evolutionary perspective.

I get what you’re trying to say, it’s just you’re going about it completely backwards

My_IFAKs___gone@lemmy.world on 12 Jun 14:58 collapse

Nah, I get that exposed flesh isn’t always comfortable or safe and the practical solution is to just steal the skin of some other animal (or convert crude oil into super soft knit fabrics). I’m just of the personal mindset that if someone is comfortable enough in their own skin that they are completely fine going about their business in the buff, that the rest of society shouldn’t lose its shit and just be like, “k whatever u do u naked person wear sunblock.”

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.

tabular@lemmy.world on 12 Jun 14:05 next collapse

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.

surewhynotlem@lemmy.world on 13 Jun 11:28 collapse

Why would anyone respect a culture?

“A bunch of people made a decision. Therefore you can’t question it”. Like… What?

bluGill@fedia.io on 13 Jun 13:41 collapse

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 ...)

surewhynotlem@lemmy.world on 13 Jun 17:42 collapse

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.

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?

LovableSidekick@lemmy.world on 15 Jun 00:33 collapse

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.
