Comment on I grew up in the era of Photoshop and people would post fake nudes. Why is it now a big deal that AI is doing it? Kinda like the Taylor Swift thing on twitter.

Because now, anyone can do it to anyone with zero effort and a single photo.

Sure, before anyone with decent Photoshop skills could put together a halfway decently convincing fake nude but its still significantly more effort and time than most would be bothered with and even then its fairly easy to spot and dispute a fake.

Most people weren’t concerned if a celebrity’s fake nudes were spread around before but now that a colleague, student, family member, or even a random member of the public could generate a convincing photo the threat has become far more real and far more conceivable

To be fair. Photoshop has made tasks like this incredible simple. With a “good” photo, the process is much less esoteric now than it was once.

  it still takes time/knowledge and isn’t automated
  
  it can’t be turned into an unending assembly line where one 16 year old with basic computer literacy can pump out thousands a day if they want
