Trolls have flooded X with graphic Taylor Swift AI fakes (www.theverge.com)

Sexually explicit AI-generated images of Taylor Swift have been circulating on X (formerly Twitter) over the last day in the latest example of the proliferation of AI-generated fake pornography and the challenge of stopping it from spreading.

X’s policies regarding synthetic and manipulated media and nonconsensual nudity both explicitly ban this kind of content from being hosted on the platform.

Unhealthy things should be forbidden? Even if they were, this is drifting off of the subject of AI art.

Things that are bad for society should be suppressed and things which are good for society should be promoted. That would seem to be the point of a society.

Further, I notice a pastern in your replies of bringing up metaphor then rejecting the very metaphor as off topic or irrelevant when it is engaged to it's logical conclusion.

No accusing you of engaging in bad faith or anything, but it smells (sorry, metaphor again) less-than-fresh.

Should we also have a single wise man to decide which is which? That has been tried before, multiple times.

Well we certainly shouldn't have violence for violence, as is the Rule of Beasts.

Is AI art literally violent, or is this another analogy?
