The Rise of Deep-Fake Porn
The Free Press ^ | 2/6/23 | River Page

Posted on 02/07/2023 5:32:39 PM PST by CFW

Rapid advances in AI technology mean that computers can now write stories, create art, compose music, and even pass the bar. And while this has led to much media hand-wringing over the end of mankind, there is an even more immediate threat: the rise of deepfake AI, which can project anyone’s likeness into a hyperrealistic video without their knowledge or permission. It can even turn a person into an unwitting porn star.

Just last week, this happened to a 28-year-old woman who appears on Twitch and YouTube under the handle QTCinderella.

In this piece, which originally appeared in Pirate Wires, River Page explains why we all need to wake up to the profound and dangerous implications of this new technology.

There are a few "F-bombs" in the article at the link, but I think the issue is important enough that I'm going ahead and posting this article. Everyone should talk to their children about the important of not posting pictures and video of themselves on the internet. I don't even post pictures of my family, and especially my grandchildren on Facebook to share with family and friends. I've heard horror stories of parents discovering from law enforcement that their children's innocent pictures were being used on the dark web pedophiles' sites.

Apologies. I just realized this article is for paying customers only and cannot be read to completion. But you get the general drift of the article from what’s available.

At the same time, explain why pornography is a bad evil thing. It degrades human beings made in the image of God Almighty Himself and reduces them from intelligent creatures with thoughts and feelings to playthings to be used for our own selfish sinful pleasure.

Unfortunately the FedGov law enforcement is probably the biggest producer of fake child porn. They download it to people’s computers in order to force compliance, gain guilty pleas in white supremacy, insurrection….

The unelected government is evil these days. The uses are unlimited given an unlimited powerful entity with your unlimited funds. Each law enforcement agency has to justify their budgets and the paramilitary teams. Everyone will cheer their accomplishments. I know I’m paranoid but they are out to get you and me.

Perhaps on fiber optic but not dial up. Bandwidth has its limits.

Porn isnt the big problem highlighted here.

Using this tech to create fiction where it makes someone appear to do or not do something they didn’t do, is the real problem.

Because it could be used as evidence to set someone up. To railroad someone. Conspiracy. I see a lot of guys potentially targeted for being defrauded by the opposite sex for harassment or worse that they never did.

Our freedoms and liberties have never been more in jeopardy.

Why bother when “AI” can create people indistinguishable from real people.

This must just be an interim step.

The one I would concerned with is child porn with no children.

If the existence of this technology is being made public, then you can rest assured that the MIC has had secret access to this technology for many decades.

If you haven't covered your cameras, you probably already are.

I wouldn’t be surprised of video of Joe Biden with young girls appears very soon.

It would be — of course — one of those “deep fakes” that they talk about. Probably one of Trump’s tricks. Yeah. That’s the ticket.

You got it. That might the purpose behind letting the public know about this technology.

Hey, I’ve heard the starlets talking about you slinging that baseball bat around. You should be a multi-millionaire.

There was an excellent deepfake of Biden talking about trannies last Friday. You could tell it was fake because, in the film, Biden spoke coherently in well structured, complete and logical sentences.

The Twitter account that had put the video up is now suspended.
