Some of the most harmful applications of AI tools are not hidden on the dark corners of the internet, but are actively promoted to users by social media companies.

Instagram is profiting from several ads that invite people to create nonconsensual nude images with AI image generation apps, once again showing that some of the most harmful applications of AI tools are not hidden on the dark corners of the internet, but are actively promoted to users by social media companies unable or unwilling to enforce their policies about who can buy ads on their platforms.

While parent company Meta’s Ad Library, which archives ads on its platforms, who paid for them, and where and when they were posted, shows that the company has taken down several of these ads previously, many ads that explicitly invited users to create nudes and some ad buyers were up until I reached out to Meta for comment. Some of these ads were for the best known nonconsensual “undress” or “nudify” services on the internet.

    lmao

    It’s not thoughtcrime you giant crybaby.

    But thinking about something and using tools to visualize it are not crimes.

    This is SUCH a huge leap. You have a right to your thoughts, not databases, programming and services to generate media.

      you giant crybaby

      Stay classy, fascist.

      You want to limit what data people can collect and share what programs they can write.

      Why stop there?

      Prohibit what paintings they cam make. What drawings can be drawn. What words can be written.

      Fascist.

        LMAO!

        Picture me openly laughing right in your damn face. This is such a hilarious use of the word that I can’t even begin to take it serious and it’s a tragedy that YOU are taking it serious. I’m sorry you feel so entitled to other peoples bodies and likeness. That is honestly very sad for you.

        I’m saying it’s wrong to do this because of the harm it causes, not outlawing and executing those that make the code. But that distinction is lost on you because “fascism” is anything you don’t like. Absolutely hilarious.

        (P.S I am screenshot this and show it to as many people as I can)
