Instagram is profiting from several ads that invite people to create nonconsensual nude images with AI image generation apps, once again showing that some of the most harmful applications of AI tools are not hidden on the dark corners of the internet, but are actively promoted to users by social media companies unable or unwilling to enforce their policies about who can buy ads on their platforms.
While parent company Meta’s Ad Library, which archives ads on its platforms, who paid for them, and where and when they were posted, shows that the company has taken down several of these ads previously, many ads that explicitly invited users to create nudes and some ad buyers were up until I reached out to Meta for comment. Some of these ads were for the best known nonconsensual “undress” or “nudify” services on the internet.
God damn I hate this fucking AI bullshit so god damn much.
There are already AI-written books flooding the market, not to mention other forms of written misinformation.
They still seem relatively easy to filter out compared to the oceans of SEO nonsense online. If you walk into a library you won’t be struggling to find your way past AI crap.
The flood of AI generated anything is really annoying when looking for an actual human created source.
