I'm not sure you can teach boys not to be horny teenagers 😜
Having been a teenage boy myself, I wouldn't dream of trying.
But I knew it wasn't OK to climb a tree with binoculars to try to catch a glimpse of the girl next door changing clothes, and I knew it wasn't OK to touch people without their consent. I knew people who did things like that were peeping toms and rapists. I believed peeping toms and rapists would be socially ostracized and legally punished more harshly than they often are in reality.
Making and sharing deepfakes of real people without their consent belongs on the same spectrum.
We do eventually grow up at least
... into horny men
... but hopefully with a little more empathy and propriety.
Being horny is one thing, sharing this stuff another. If whoever did the fake would've kept it to themselves, then nobody would've even known. The headline still is ass and typical "AI" hysteria though.
They shouldn’t have generated it in the first place. How would you feel if people did that to your mom, or you, or your sisters, or your kids?
I don’t think just keeping it to yourself is enough.
Man can you imagine? Someone cutting out my moms head and glues it on a porstar? I would kill myself.
False dichotomy.
I don't really care. People can and will fantasize in the same way about other people too and I'm not going to play thought police.
