AI can generate images of any living or dead woman or girl in bikini or less dressed or more explicit

How serious is this issue? What to do about it?

Do the current (e.g. defamation) laws and law enforcement in Western countries suffice or do they need to be amended? Will it become a kind of whack a mole game? How can these laws in Western countries be circumvented by other or from other countries?

What about child protection?

What about moral codes regarding nudity or images thereof in Western countries or Islamic countries?

What about AI generated fictitious women or girls?

What about the dangers of legislative overreaction to this issue? This is a real danger! It could harm human progress!

In the past, photo montage or similar techniques were used to do the same, but it was more cumbersome and required more professional expertise to do it at high or convincing quality.

With the global spread of the Internet since the early 1990s such images became already an issue. What have we learnt? How much more does AI generated content challenge our experiences and countermeasures with the World Wide Web?

Today, even Google search still serves up fake prominent women in bikini photos when you ask for it. Just try it!

1,000-plus AI-generated LinkedIn phony profiles discovered in probe

This is not good news! I guess companies running networking websites like LinkedIn (owned by Microsoft) may have to do more to prevent this! This a serious matter of trust and reliability!

"Two Stanford researchers have fallen down a LinkedIn rabbit hole, finding over 1,000 fake profiles using AI-generated faces at the bottom. .."

The Deep Fake Deep Scare

Posted: 9/14/2019  Updated: 10/8/2019

Update Of 10/8/2019

According to this MIT Technology Review article
Forget fake news—nearly all deepfakes are being made for porn about 96% of identified deep fakes on the Internet are porn related based on a report from DeepTrace.

However, it just takes one or a few well done deep fake political propaganda videos released at the right time to have a potentially serious impact on public opinion at least temporarily. Just remember the infamous 1964 Daisy Ad during U.S. Senator Goldwater’s presidential election campaign.

Original Post

A new hysteria is in the making and gaining momentum: The enormous threat of Deep Fakes for democracy and society! I am already peeing in my pants just thinking about it (caution: irony, satire)!

This is a whole lot of baloney and hot air! How stupid do these incessant, busybody scaremongers think We The People are? We The People will quickly learn how to deal with this issue! It is, of course without any question, important to warn about deep fakes and to thoroughly research the issue!

Otherwise, almost als always, follow the money trail! Fear & sex sells

I have to thank Andrew Ng for bringing this issue to my attention (S2).
