Taylor Swift deepfakes spread online, sparking outrage

Graphic artificial intelligence-generated images of superstar Taylor Swift, known as "deepfakes," have been circulating on social media. The manipulated images, videos and audio recordings seem eerily legitimate, and mark the latest example of how artificial intelligence is developing far faster than U.S. laws and regulations. Jo Ling Kent has more.

Even though this is ghastly for Taylor Swift, she might just be the person who will get change in other States in US, as well as abroad.

It's not just Taylor Swift they defamed folks.
They defamed our KC Chiefs. And we take that very personally.
These guys are some of the best guys on the planet.
They don't deserve
that sexual abuse and harassment either.

I know the word deep fake is scary, but this has been happening ever since photoshop was created. I am sure it even goes way before that as well. The thing that might be scary is how good the images CAN look vs photoshop, and now we can apply it to video.

Why should I have to scrutinize anything. This is the job of the billionaire big tech owners. They must be held liable!

[Anna-wwpv]

I’m sure anyone can make images of famous people with AI.

[jamesfestini]

Very soon the entire network industry will begin placing a badge on everything you watch, including your channel

[whyme]

“Trump with three legs”

Now ima stop you right there.

At least HOPEFULLY something will be done with the AI generators. I wish that laws will help many that are effected by AI generators; Image, Voice, Text and more.. Something needs to be done and fast.
So many artists, poets, musicians, Voice actors and much more are being replaced by AI generators.. It doesn't stop at lewd images but far worse. Most doesn't want to see the truth to AI generators.

Oh please. There have been fakes of Taylor Swift ever since she got into the music business. She's worth over a billion USD because of the fakes. She's going to file suit to remove the fakes? She's going to need an Army of lawyers. And she'll be too busy to write or to sing another song. Her face and body is all over the Internet. She's laughing all the way to the bank. You can't buy this kind of publicity. Get real. She's not going to go after hardly anyone except those people who clearly are using her. Taylor. Hubba, ! Hubba! Nice.
