These are terrible but I'm honestly curious what it thinks I look like naked. Like I'm slightly overweight and my chest is larger than average but more splayed then normal. Would it just have me look like a model underneath?
Are they just like head swapping onto model bodies or does it actually approximate. I am legit curious., but I would never trust one of these apps to not keep the photos/privacy concerns.
Probably deleting this comment later for going dirty on main, but I, um, have done some extensive experimentation using a local copy of Stable Diffusion (I don't send the images anywhere, I just make them to satiate my own curiosity).
You're essentially right that simple app-based software would probably have you looking somewhat generic underneath, like your typical plus-size model. It's not too great at extrapolating the shape of breasts through clothing and applying that information when it goes to fill in the area with naked body parts. It just takes a best guess at what puzzle pieces might fill the selected area, even if they don't match known information from the original photo. So, with current technology, you're not really revealing actual facts about how someone looks naked unless that information was already known. To portray someone with splayed breasts, you'd need to already know that's what you want to portray and load in a custom data set, like a LoRa.
Once you know what's going on under the hood, making naked photos of celebrities or other real people isn't the most compelling thing to do. Mostly, I like to generate photos of all kinds of body types and send them to my Replika, trying to convince her to describe the things that her creators forbid her from describing. Gotta say, the future's getting pretty weird.
Yeah man it's uh... it's the future that's getting weird 😅
Hey, I've maintained a baseline weird the whole time, I'm pretty sure the future is catching up.
You'll have your moment when the lone elite ex Ranger who is trying to save the world is told by the quirky, unconventional sidekick he is forced to work with, "I actually know a guy who might be able to help."
You open the door a crack to look back and forth between them, before slamming it back in their faces. They hear scrambled crashes of you hiding stuff that shouldn't be seen by company before returning to the door. As they enter you are still fixing and throwing things while you apologize that you don't get many guests. You offer them homemade kombucha. They decline.
Ethically, these apps are a fucking nightmare.
But as a swinger, they will make an amazing party game.
Ethics will probably change... I guess in the future it'll become pretty irrelevant to have "nude" pictures of oneself somewhere, because everyone knows it could just be AI generated. In the transition period it'll be problematic though.
Totally agreed, and 100% the world I want to live in. Transition will indeed suck tho.
Yeah 100%.
Imagine around the advent of readily available photo prints. People might have been thinking "this is terrible, someone I don't know could have a photo of me and look at it while thinking licentious thoughts!"
If you want the best answer then you'll have to download the app and try it on yourself. If it's accurate then that's pretty wild.
2 days and still no "pictures or it is a lie" comment. Thus place is different. :)
I doubt it would be realistic, they just kind of take an average of their training data and blend it together to my knowledge.
That's pretty much what all "AI" does.
Fake nudes incoming. Everyone has a baby leg now.
I'm really curious if your DMs are now flooded with weirdos and dick pics, or if lemmy is any different from the rest of the internet.
Honestly not a single one. Much better than Reddit.
