Well, fuck, I better log off of Lemmy because it costs me too much damn money.

The article clearly outlines where people are paying for this content.

Which is a small minority of what people are doing. Most are just making AI images for free, porn or not. The whole article tries to gaslight you into thinking there's some deep dark underground where people are doing malicious things and we're supposed to feel guilty about it.

And the idea that “no one is allowed to talk about this topic while human trafficking exists” is nonsense.

You're putting words in my mouth. I was saying that, if given a choice between a future where AI-generated porn becomes the norm, and now, I will pick the conflict-free version every single damn time. Whatever disadvantages they want to pretend exist for AI are far outweighed with the shitty situation with have with the sex/porn industry right now.

You can talk about it all you want, but you can't just completely ignore the obvious comparisons, either. The same goes for all of the different mediums where Rule 34 existed beforehand. The article pretends they don't exist, as if this new AI medium somehow changes how people fantasize about shit. It doesn't. People have done this for decades.

People need to learn to read before commenting on an article.

I did. They didn't "investigate" anything. It's a superficial fluff piece designed to push an emotion, rather than to inform. It's deceptive.

Maybe spend more time actually fighting human trafficking than virtue signaling on social media if it’s the only topic you feel is important.

Again, you're attributing things to me when you don't even fucking know me. What makes you think anything I say is the only topic I feel is important?

And "actually fighting human trafficking"? What the fuck have you done to actually fight human trafficking?

I'm not a fucking journalist. I don't have the power to do that sort of thing. But, I can at least criticize the so-called journalists and what they do with their power.

Here's the justice math:

• Poor person wrongs a poor person = whatever, let the police figure it out and maybe they'll randomly get justice, the rich don't care
• Poor person wrongs a rich person = they're fucked and buried by the justice system
• Rich person wrongs a poor person = slap on the wrist, and only because the poor person wasted a lot of money to get there
• Rich person wrongs multiple rich people = Justice actually gets served because the rich pour all of their resources to get them there (see Bernie Madoff, Elizabeth Holmes, etc.)

Hell, the rich will even put up with some other rich person's bullshit, as long as they are useful in some other capacity. This is Trump, but Trump has outlived his usefulness, so he's getting thrown to the wolves.

And then those good employees go work for your competition. Oopsie!

And Amazon's competition is...

Yeah, I wonder what that is.

“Mage Space” which charge money per image generated

Well, instead of bitching about the AI porn aspect, perhaps they should spend more time talking about how much of a scam it is to charge for AI-generated images.

I hate linking this video, because it's an insulting take. They interview a bunch of recycling companies, and only show their side of things, while blaming the consumer for not reusing their own trash.

Oh, you are the guys who wrote this piece of shit article?

No, that's not how open-source or open-source philosophies work. They share their work because they were able to download other people's work, and sometimes people improve upon their own work.

These aren't corporations. You don't need to immediately jump to capitalistic conclusions. Just jump on Unstable Diffusion Discord or CivitAI yourself. It's all free.

Just a reminder than Alan Wake and Control are in the same universe. There was a really good DLC for Control that takes place after the events of Alan Wake.

“So much for Objective Journalism. Don't bother to look for it here--not under any byline of mine; or anyone else I can think of. With the possible exception of things like box scores, race results, and stock market tabulations, there is no such thing as Objective Journalism. The phrase itself is a pompous contradiction in terms.” ― Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72
