If you think about it, there are already tools that can do pretty convincing face swaps with few clicks and just from one low res photo at whatever angle. Long are gone the times you had to train the models for hours and had to have few hundred photos to just get “okay” fake. Once deepfake video creation becomes this simple, it is game over for porn industry.
Since why would anyone go into porn industry, when they can just use a tool to create lewd content of themselves if they are so inclined to make a living that way? And then it goes the other way around, why would anyone buy it if they can just homebrew it for free.
All in all, it is a good thing. Less exploitation of actual human beings and more power to “consumers”. But then there have to be rigid laws against actuall AI porn dissemination, it should be illegal for anything else than private use unless actual consent to be used as source can be proven.
I have to ask: why is people that enjoy having sex infront of a camera so unbelievable to you? I am guessing that you are anti-porn. Is that what you want to believe?
I’m not saying there aren’t people who enjoy it. But I assume the numbers of those who say they do vs those who acutually do wildly differ. You got to keep in mind that there is a huge incentive in making consumers believe that actors and actresses enjoy it.
That’s fair but I think your estimate is way off. At less than 1% you’re basically saying that nobody really enjoys doing porn. Additionally, I think things like inadequate wages, being forced to interact with crazy customers (fans), and unsafe working conditions would make people want to quit the industry rather than the sex work itself.
You’re right, I think it’s not the sex work in front of a camera but rather all that comes with it. Including stalking, risk of contracting STDs, highly unregulated work environment…
