I agree with you nudity being an issue but I think the real problem is this app being used on children and teenagers who aren't used to/supposed to be sexualized.

Fully agree but I do think that's more an issue about psychology in our world and trauma. Children being nude should not be a big deal, they're kids you know?

[–] Eezyville@sh.itjust.works 6 points 11 months ago

It shouldn't be a big deal if they choose to be nude some place that is private for them and they're comfortable. The people who are using this app to make someone nude isn't really asking for consent. And that also brings up another issue. Consent. If you have images of yourself posted to the public then is there consent needed to alter those images? I don't know but I don't think there is since it's public domain.

Nudity shouldn't be considered sexual.

[–] TORFdot0@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Not all nudity is but there is no non-sexual reason to use AI to undress someone without consent

[–] Eezyville@sh.itjust.works 3 points 11 months ago

The question on consent is something I'm trying to figure out. Do you need consent to alter an image that is available in a public space? What if it was you who took the picture of someone in public?

Pipe dream.

Just because something shouldn't be doesn't mean It won't be. This is reality and we can't just wish something to be true. You saying it doesn't really help anything.

Whoooooosh.

In societies that have a healthy relationship with the human body, nudity is not considered sexual. I'm not just making up fantasy scenarios.

so because it's not a problem in your culture it's not a problem?

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com -2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You're just really looking for an excuse to attack someone, aren't you?

You caught me, I'm an evil villain who preys on innocent lemmings for no reason at all

[–] gun@lemmy.ml -2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Take it up with God or evolution then

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You can't really be that stupid.
