The year is 1997. A young boy is about to watch a porn video for the first time on a grainy VHS tape. An older version of himself from the far off year of 2025 appears.
Me: "You know, in the future, you'll make your own porn videos."
90s me: "Wow, you mean I'll get to have lots of hot sex!?!?"
Me: "Ha! No. So Nvidia will release this system called CUDA..."
I thought this was going to go Watchmen for a moment. Like...
It is 1997, I am a young boy, I am jerking off to a grainy porno playing over stolen cinemax.
It is 2007, i am in my dorm, i am jerking off to a forum thread full of hi-res porno.
It is 2027, i am jerking off to an ai porno stream that mutates to my desires in real time. I am about to nut so hard that it shatters my perception of time.
The AI camera will still zoom in on the guys nuts as you’re about to bust tho.
Then another company called Deepseek will release a system called low level programming that replaces CUDA.
It's super funny to me that they named it "WanX" haha
Kudos to the English speaking guy on the team who pushed that under the radar. That has got to be intentional.
it fulfilled its name mandate %100
mind-blowing
Hmm, it's certainly blowing something.
I am going to make this statement openly on the Internet. Feel free to make AI generated porn of me as long as it involves adults. Nobody is going to believe that a video of me getting railed by a pink wolf furry is real. Everyone knows I'm not that lucky.
Fortunately, most of my family is so tech illiterate that even if a real video got out, I could just tell them it's a deepfake and they'd probably believe me.
First off, I am sex positive, pro porn, pro sex work, and don't believe sex work should be shameful, and that there is nothing wrong about buying intimacy from a willing seller.
That said. The current state of the industry and the conditions for many professionals raises serious ethical issues. Coercion being the biggest issue.
I am torn about AI porn. On one hand it can produce porn without suffering, on the other hand it might be trained on other peoples work and take peoples jobs.
I think another major point to consider going forward is if it is problematic if people can generate all sorts of illegal stuff. If it is AI generated it is a victimless crime, so should it be illegal? I personally feel uncomfortable with the thought of several things being legal, but I can't logically argue for it being illegal without a victim.
i have no problem with ai porn assuming it's not based on any real identities, i think that should be considered identity theft or impersonation or something.
Outside of that, it's more complicated, but i don't think it's a net negative, people will still thrive in the porn industry, it's been around since it's been possible, i don't see why it wouldn't continue.
Identity theft only makes sense for businesses. I can sketch naked Johny Depp in my sketchbook and do whatever I want with it and no one can stop me. Why should an AI tool be any different if distribution is not involved?
revenge porn, simple as. Creating fake revenge porn of real people is still to some degree revenge porn, and i would argue stealing someones identity/impersonation.
To be clear, you're example is a sketch of johnny depp, i'm talking about a video of a person that resembles the likeness of another person, where the entire video is manufactured. Those are fundamentally, two different things.
Good.
Hot take but I think AI porn will be revolutionary and mostly in a good way. Sex industry is extremely wasteful and inefficient use of our collective time that also often involves a lot of abuse and dark business practices. It's just somehow taboo to even mention this.
Sometimes you come across a video and you are like 'oh this. I need more of THIS.'
And then you start tailoring searches to try find more of the same but you keep getting generic or repeated results because the lack of well described/defined content overuse of video TAGs (obviously to try get more views with a large net rather than being specific).
But would i watch AI content if i could feed it a description of what i want? Hell yeah!
I mean there are only so many videos of girls giving a blowjob while he eats tacos and watches old Black & White documentaries about the advancements of mechanical production processes.
Yes, but will also hurt the very workers' bottom line, and with some clever workarounds, it'll be used to fabricate defamatory material other methods were not good at.
I can see it being used to make images of people who don't know and haven't consented though and that's pretty shit
Same with photoshop. I wish people didn't do bad things with tools also, but we can't let the worst of us all to define the world we live in.
Oh my God! That's disgusting! AI porn online!? Where!? Where do they post those!? There's so many of them, though. Which one?
Fucking disgusting unethical shit. Tell me where to find it so I can avoid it pls.
I'm a representative of the American pornographical societies of America and I would like to educate myself and others in this disgusting AI de-generated graphical content for the purpose of informing my friends and family about this. Could we please have a link?
Even Onlyfans girls and boys will lose their jobs because of AI :(
It's really called Wanx?
*Aliboobie
Finally, my dream of making black gay porn is realized
Atleast don't censor the photos so for educational purposes only we can collectively judge if this AI art is indeed worth a damn.
It’s time like this that I think, ahhh, the Internet never truly changed :D
What I find incredible is that they named this thing WanX, which can alternatively be pronounced Wanks. Nominative Determinism at its finest
I am looking forward to this becoming common and effective. Being able to generate animated hentai in assorted styles would be neat. Lina Inverse getting boinked by Donald Duck could be a thing.
This is the way.
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
