This sort of thing makes me wonder about paraphilia’s that might emerge - images which might tweak some human reactions in a way that human bodies just can’t. Like those flowers that mimic female flies so well the males prefer them to actual female flies.

Art already does that! Don‘t you know about furry porn? Hyper, macro, vore -there are all kinds of fetishes that would be impossible in real life. Insane hyperoptimizations.

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...…

That's exactly the problem. Without regulation and oversight, AI will inevitably become perceptual crack for the entire human species.

To be honest, I kinda feel AI porn is actually more ethical than the current porn industry. Much like written or drawn porn, it does not rely on the objectification of actual people. Instead it can fill a niche without hurting anyone. There is the problem of it replacing real jobs, but this is not unique to the field. The main problem, in my eyes, is AI porn that mimics real people. This is the main place I'd like to…

I agree with the core sentiment, but not the "without hurting anyone" part. Porn addiction (and its consequences) has been the elephant in the room for a while.

the substance of the addiction isn't hurting anyone, addicts are hurting themselves and need help to stop

"The generated porn could have negative consequences particularly for marginalized groups, the ethicists say, including the artists and adult actors who make a living creating porn to fulfill customers’ fantasies" Why "marginalized"?

It’s just a meaningless word used to garnish woke word puke.

> The girls were literal 10/10 perfections, you would never be able to find humans like that, even among world-class supermodels.

That sounds really boring, lol.

I'm gonna ask something awful, but isn't this the end of child porn? It's sad but isn't it the least painful option? I wish it would then lead the people that need mental health to a professional, hell, couldn't we engineer an ai that progressively guides their misguided patterns to an acceptable level? (assuming such a thing exists)

That's not awful at all its just a topic that makes people queasy, and an outcome which blueballs those who are into hating pedos first and protecting children as an afterthought.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

> A subreddit for people who enjoy obvious breast implants. gotta love an /r/ with rules that make sense.

At least now at least I can parse "boltedontits" correctly, and not as "bolt e don't its".

It’s not awful because it has been addressed before. Sure, if you can create child porn at your demand there’s no reason to go look for the real thing, at least in theory.

There are a couple of problems though. How would the model be trained? It has to process child faces. This is a huge red flag by itself. The second problem is that it might get more people addicted to child porn. If it becomes so easy to access who can tell how many more will find it attractive. And then you’ll end up with a much bigger problem than the one you had when started.

> I am very worried tbh. Currently, it took a couple hundred dollars and a week to generate that porn, because the artist has to work with special models and do a lot of manual iterations, inpainting, etc, before it becomes even passable, and then even more iterations to make it almost flawless. But I think it's only a matter of time before this becomes automated.

> And then I'll probably overdose and fry my brains out during a never ending binge on random-seed generated, precison-engineered, personalized dopamine bombs.

MDMA is cheaper and overuse will literally fry your brain. I'd be more worried about that. Yanking it to AI porn is a self-limiting endeavor and I assume sitting around in the cold dampness of your shame you will eventually hit rock bottom and post-nut clarity.

If you are truly seeking for a way out you are one of the few people I would suggest hop a plane to a foreign country to frequent a red lights district as your problems go far deeper than just getting stuck on a hedonistic treadmill.

But yeah, teenagers and people who can't or are too afraid to leave the house will be more screwed up by this than regular porn.
