Pornhub Is Banning AI-Generated 'Deepfakes' Porn Videos (vice.com)
On Tuesday, Pornhub told Motherboard that it considers deepfakes to be nonconsensual porn and that it will ban these videos. "Deepfakes" is a community originally named after a Redditor who enjoys face-swapping celebrity faces onto porn performers' bodies using a machine learning algorithm. Motherboard reports: "We do not tolerate any nonconsensual content on the site and we remove all said content as soon as we are made aware of it," a spokesperson told me in an email. "Nonconsensual content directly violates our TOS [terms of service] and consists of content such as revenge porn, deepfakes or anything published without a person's consent or permission." Pornhub previously told Mashable that it has removed deepfakes that are flagged by users. Pornhub's position on deepfakes is similar to statements made by Discord and Gfycat, and in line with its existing terms of service, which prohibit content that "impersonates another person or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with a person."
Well, Trump is an unthinking, self-aggrandizing, emotionally immature moron, who applies a reality TV show attitude to his presidency. With these qualities in mind, I deem him to be a woefully inadequate president.
That it's still a matter of opinion doesn't mean I'm talking nonsense.
partisan hack
I'm British. I have no particular love for the US's Democratic party. There's a reason virtually everyone outside the US sees Trump as a laughing stock, and it's not because they're all rooting for the Democrats.
The Republican party deserves a damn sight better than Trump. Even Republicans admit this, at least the ones with integrity.
people who say "What Trump said, is really really bad!" but when they're shown that it was say Hillary or Obama who said it suddenly panic when their bubble is popped
Yup, there are plenty of unthinking partisan muppets out there, but I'm not among them.
Or when someone is given a viewpoint/statement that they agree with, and suddenly discover that it's Trump who said it.
Same again. That I think the man is incompetent doesn't mean I disagree with everything he's ever said. Indeed, I support some of his actions as president, such as withdrawing from TPP.
Anyway, if you go digging, you'll find that even Hitler and Mussolini said plenty of agreeable things. That Hitler was a dog-loving vegetarian doesn't mean we now have to avoid dogs and vegetarianism.
