Deepfakes on tap. Does this have a legitimate use?

man im sure this will be used for good.

Some things should not be made.

I mean, Why? Even Elon changed twitter to X.

Yes people will only upload AI generated fake images here and never a real person's picture. Right? Right?

The pearl-clutching over this will be enormous.

The one legitimate use I can see for this is to start building porn without people having to do porn anymore: obviously, porn industry is still running strong, but using AI generation can avoid stigmatizing any one particular person (in theory).

OTOH, it does have potential to ruin revenue stream for those who had to turn to porn for lack of better choices in life (iow, most people doing porn: I am guessing) as AI generation will require rich companies to do, at least early on.
