      I’ve always taken the “protect our children” argument to have an implied “…from the knowledge that will actually protect them from abusers” based on the things the argument is trotted out for.

        always be wary when they say either “protect the children” or " for your safety"

    Paywall. Nope. Exploit those girls with your AI then. The messages against it can’t be heard without money.

      Why do you think that journalists don’t deserve to get paid? People on Lemmy are even more entitled than people on Reddit.

      The messages against it can’t be heard without money.

      You shouldn’t need an article to tell you not to exploit people.

        they didn’t say that. you’re making a leap of logic and putting words in their mouth

          Obviously they didn’t say exactly that, but how else are they supposed to earn money?

            They already make money on the ads, and of course you have to make an account, so they sell your info… and then they fire the journalists… I would pay for a good source of real new that didn’t have ads and didn’t sell my info. But they don’t exist.

              What ads? I don’t see any ads.

              Their privacy policy also doesn’t seem too bad compared to most services.

              and of course you have to make an account, so they sell your info… and then they fire the journalists…

              What are you talking about? Do you think a 170 year old newspaper is an exit scam designed to get personal data, sell it, and then fuck off?

              I encountered many New York times articles behind a paywall. I was :o that this wasn’t behind a paywall for me.

              I use archive.md for paywalls.

              I hope the New York times doesn’t sell user data. If it does, public rage can move it from being 1 of the top news sites to the bottom.

                I don’t give a fuck. sell subscriptions, push ads, whatever. but if you deny access based on an ability to pay, what you have to say isn’t worth my time.

                  I can’t believe you’re pushing that dumb take in the same comment that you’re suggesting the newspapers sell subscriptions. The cognitive dissonance is astounding.

                  The internet has made people feel very entitled to every form of content.

                  If you feel these organizations and their posts aren’t worth your time, stop commenting on them like a smug edgelord without actual solutions.

                  Ads that pay enough are quite terrible for privacy though and why should manipulative ads be the only way you are allowed to finance your news? Plus the fact that a lot of people use adblockers (me included)

                  I agree that paywalls are annoying I also like free stuff, but crying about it like they did is just so entitled.

        If you think your message is important, you shouldn’t bury it. Their message isn’t important. Their message is just to bring in money. “Journalists” can fuck right off. A real journalist is someone in the right place at the right time and telling about it because it’s important, not to make a career out of it. Consider Karl Jobst. He’s a journalist. He’s even getting paid. You know what he’s not doing? That’d be sitting in an office promoting a website with a subscription fee. Jobbers are not journalists.

              Being a journalist is their job.

              Why do you think that journalists don’t deserve to live by being journalists?

              Why don’t you do your job for free? Why don’t doctors work for free if their job is so important.

              Also, where are your alleged “important messages”? I would like to read them.

              Btw, I had never heard of your Karl guy but he does get paid for his work. Because of course he does. He even has a patreon.

              And I wouldn’t really call talking about speedruns to be important messages.

                Think I should be paid for when I just do what’s right when it’s right? Rewarded maybe but idk about as a profession. Open source devs rarely get a payroll and they contribute to the world far more than payroll devs. Information is only good when it’s free.

    As much as I would like to blame ai. Photoshop has been doing this for a long time already. I think the public ai sites already do csam searching and stuff for this already but somebody could still run it locally.

    Don’t we just send people caught with such materials to jail then? Regardless of if it was AI generated or not. If it is made to look like them then clearly shouldn’t be in your possession without their consent.

    This will not be popular, but I welcome this. Once we normalize AI video porn, then videos are no longer trusted like we don’t trust photoshopped images.

    Even if the video is real, anyone can just claim it’s AI. Nobody will even need to create their own home videos anymore because the kink is sorta gone now since anyone can claim it’s fake.

    A very ugly side to the technology, I absolutely think this should be considered on the same level as revenge porn and child pornography.

    I also fear these kind of stories while be used to manipulate the public into thinking banning the tools is in their best interest instead of punishing the bad actors.
