Hope this tech will end loneliness in some people
It will increase it. Porn is cheap gratification without deeper emotional connection. I don't think that people can grow without being challenged by others and AI cannot be programmed to challenge us.
That's funny because everything all chatbots do is say "I'm sorry, as an AI assistant I can't do that"
One of the leaps about AI is that there used to be a human bottleneck in this kind of content. Youtube needed youtubers (content creators), porn sites needed women (the primary bottleneck), etc etc for all digitizable forms of human experience. I find it ironic that in close time proximity to NFTs and digital real estate we see the ability to generate practically unlimited of those things being a foreseeable reality.…
The images in these ads show women with exaggerated features that one would never find in real life. For some subset of porn consumers, this may actually decrease the value of the real.
Hmmm. I'm not sure if the anime-girls are AI. I'd need a more careful look than what's available through the article, but I can recognize them as the characters from Konosuba and from One Piece. Possibly fanart, though I know that AI-generators have gotten better at drawing copyrighted characters, the costumes don't have any obvious errors to me. A bit sex'd up, but fan-artists have a habit of sexing-up characters. I…

This not true even today. Ubiquitous compliance is not a native trait to AI models. Llama 2 has no problem telling me off if I mistreat it.

I've been stunned looking through crowdsourced prompt and "character card" examples for stable diffusion and llama. Got a second 3090 so I could experiment with a few business ideas and work on a graphic novel with my kids. It appears that the primary use case for both of these open source tools currently is NSFW, most of it underage and incestuous (the "step sister/brother/dad/mom" trend in porn is taken a "step" fu…
It's going to be a huge market, being able to have cyber sex with an AI that will send you generated pictures on demand has no option except massive profitability. Even phone sex with AI is likely possible, some of the voice AIs out there are not bad. Watch some of the presidents play minecraft or presidents discuss anime videos on youtube for examples. It's not very ethical but I could see AIs trained on celebrity s…
As loneliness washes over the population, these AI connections will appear very inviting. Who knows if it turns out like “her” (the movie) or if it is beneficial to humanity. Like all technologies I suspect it will be a mix.
