Artificial Intelligence, Pornography and a Brave New World
An eerie new development in the world of artificial intelligence
Artificial intelligence has been on the rise for years. Within the last few months alone, some of the developments within this area of technology have become difficult to ignore. With the advent of AI image creation services like Dall-E 2, Midjourney and Lensa, this burgeoning new field has grown into something new entirely.
Shortly after the release of these image creation tools, ChatGPT came onto the scene as well. As more and more people began to learn about it, everyone from writers and teachers to students and historians began speculating about the ways these services could change everything going forward.
With how quickly things in the world of technology move, it’s hard to imagine that these programs won’t improve over time. And when they do, it’s difficult to deny the threat it will pose to creators of all sorts.
As internet pornography has pervaded more of our culture, artificial intelligence has begun sinking its teeth into that market as well. With the world of AI image creation rapidly achieving new heights, it’s perhaps no surprise that it’s found more nefarious applications.
