    This wasn’t a problem until the rich white girl got it. Now we must do… something. Let’s try panic!

    -The Whitehouse, probably.

      Honestly, I kind of don’t even care. If that’s what it takes to get people to realize that it’s a serious problem, cool. I mean, it’s aggravating, but at least now something might actually happen that helps protect people who aren’t megastars.

          Blah blah blah so tiring to hear this thoughtless perspective constantly pushed in the fediverse.

            I’m just saying, nothing about this should lead anyone to the conclusion that anyone in power is suddenly going to start caring about poor people. They’re literally only talking about this because a billionaire got its feelings hurt.

              Fair enough, and at the end of the day I probably hate billionaires as much as you do.

            If you don’t like discourse that is different from your beliefs then plug your ears and shout lalala as you have been doing so for decades.

              Someone complaining about the same thoughtless perspective is not complaining about discourse.

              Just once I’d love to have actual discourse about capitalism. I’ve never met a person who expressed hatred of capitalism who seemed capable of of discourse unfortunately.

        The only thing that could possibly happen to protect people from this is to make AI illegal. That would be (a) impossible to enforce without draconian decrease in individual freedom, like keeping people stuffed in crates of packing foam instead of free to move around, and (b) absolutely horrible if it were successfully enforced.

        AI is cheaper and easier to proliferate than any drug. We have not succeeded in controlling drugs, despite their physical requirements of mass and volume making them visible in reality, a feature AI does not share.

        The attempt to control AI can and will destroy all our freedoms if we let it. Again, the only way to control something so ephemeral as computation is to massively restrict all freedom.

      It absolutely was a problem before and it’s not because Taylor is white. Revenge porn laws aren’t new and AI legislation has been in the works before this popped off.

      You also gonna say nobody cared about election interference until an AI recording of Biden told people not to vote?

      Just because you weren’t aware doesn’t mean it wasn’t happening
