Julia, 21, has received fake nude photos of herself generated by artificial intelligence. The phenomenon is exploding.

“I’d already heard about deepfakes and deepnudes (…) but I wasn’t really aware of it until it happened to me. It was a slightly anecdotal event that happened in other people’s lives, but it wouldn’t happen in mine”, thought Julia, a 21-year-old Belgian marketing student and semi-professional model.

At the end of September 2023, she received an email from an anonymous author. Subject: "Realistic? “We wonder which photo would best resemble you”, she reads.

Attached were five photos of her.

In the original content, posted on her social networks, Julia poses dressed. In front of her eyes are the same photos. Only this time, Julia is completely naked.

Julia has never posed naked. She never took these photos. The Belgian model realises that she has been the victim of a deepfake.

    Learn from your experiences, the experiences of others, and try to be a better judge of character. Don’t hang around bad crowds.

    Unfortunately, most people can’t rise above peer pressure and think a group is always correct even if it’s comprised of shitty people.

    What you don’t do is keep doing the same thing and expecting different results.

      Your responses are tone death as fuck.

      The experiences of other woman is they thought they could trust certain men and they ended up dead. My experience is that men can massively change their behavior depending on the social setting. Just guys, guys and girls, or alone with a woman.

      Besides sometimes its not even a bad crowd thing or judge of character. Sometimes some creep gets obsessed with a women and if she turns him down the “wrong” way, dude can flip and kill her.

      There have been multiple INCEL killers. What did women do wrong that time, oh great wise one?

      I encourage you to make women friends and actually listen to their experiences. It is not as simple as you make it out to be.
