,,putting women in the porn industry out of a job'' Sounds like a great thing. The industry is getting 18 year old women who don't have experience in managing money to sell their body for a few thousand dollars to be shown forever, then their porn value drops dramatically fast.

Go to any agency and their average model age is older than you think.

Age | Number

18 | 0

19 | 6

20 | 6

21 | 10

22 | 11

23 | 8

24 | 3

25 | 4

26 | 1

27 | 1

28 | 2

29 | 3

30+ | 9

An average of around 24...

From a quick sample.

I am addicted to (human) pornography and when I first heard about AI porn, I vowed to myself to never watch it, because I knew it would be like heroin on steroids to my brain. Welp, curiosity got the better of me, and I gave in and decided to check it out, but not the anime type that the Techcrunch article seems to have as pixelated examples. Instead, I ordered some photorealistic AI porn from an artist and it was...…

Thank you for sharing your perspective and experience. I hope that you will be able to adapt to this new world and look after yourself.

> The future is not Orwell and his "a boot stamping on a human face— forever." It's AI expertly pushing our little human psychological/emotional buttons forever. Bradbury explores (amongst other things) a constantly hedonistic society in Fahrenheit 451 : * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fahrenheit_451 Elements of that also found in Huxley's Brave New World : * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_New_World

It's almost a central theme of "Brave New World." I've always wondered why 1984 gets so much credit for prescience when Brave New World and Vonnegut's "Player Piano" seem to have (from this vantage point) got our nail on the head a little better. If you haven't read "Player Piano" its about a future where, as all jobs have been automated, society is divided into engineers and non-engineers on the dole who are basical…

The latter sounds something inspired by Keynes except he predicted a 15 hour work week but the books scenario insists on a 40 hour work week. If engineers work too much they can work less hours and give the remaining hours to another person so that there are more jobs. If the engineers insist on working full time, then what happens is that one engineer does the work of three people which means two people either end up unemployed or they must do pointless busy work so that the engineer's ego isn't broken because he thinks he is some kind of hero overworking himself for the sake of lazy people living on government benefits.

Keynes would say something like, "if there are private interests standing in the way of building housing and the like, then burying bank notes in the ground and making people dig them up would be better than... nothing."

Pics or STFU. Seriously, though, you could post a screenshot of one those fake 10/10 faces you are talking about. You're already anonymous. Otherwise, I don't buy this. If what you say is true, that better-than-real porn can be produced for $200, then porn stars will all be redundant within a year. I think that would be a good thing, as many porn stars are victims of abuse. Although I think more harm will be done to…

> there are people who actually give a shit about who they marry / date / hire for work So are those who are not offended that their employee did some nude modeling or sex work are... careless or inconsiderate in some way? Should hiring or dating include some kind of background check based on puritanical definitions of "moral character"? Perhaps people who think that way should wear some kind of scarlet letter. That…

I don't know what ,,should'' happen, there have been many firing because of sex work related reasons. Also those background checks won't be the official reason these people won't get hired, it's always easy to create an alternative reason, just how it works with agism, sexism and racism.

Thanks for clarifying. When I read "actually give a shit" it suggests to me that the writer thinks those who aren't concerned have committed some moral failure.

There was a Netflix documentary about it

This one https://www.netflix.com/title/80038162 ?

You're aware that it is no longer 1995 and that women are streaming themselves live all over the web in interactive channels.

Also "Only Fans".

Who's getting exploited here-- you or them??

Those are photos, and most have obviously strange artifacts. A full video is an order of magnitude harder. And don't believe they can be created for $200.
