I mean...if it stops the exploitation of the "stars", that's a net positive. There's some horror stories out there.
The part where people are trademarking their likenesses and partnering with AI companies to maintain control of their image is nice. It never even occurred to me the possibility of porn stars to be part of the AI layoff steamroller, but this is essentially it. Why hire you for more when we can generate more?
I also liked that the AI partners gave them creative control over their likeness and the ability to turn down certain prompts that violate their consent. Going to grok as a workaround to still get to see someone do something they aren't comfortable with is really messed up though.
The article ending with the long term implications of AI pornography blurring the lines of consent for some people due to the nature of on demand anything goes at the click of button mentality developing is a take that is never thought I'd read in a playboy. This article was really a great read.
