Apps and websites that use artificial intelligence to undress women in photos are soaring in popularity, according to researchers.

In September alone, 24 million people visited undressing websites, according to the social network analysis company Graphika.

Many of these undressing, or “nudify,” services use popular social networks for marketing, according to Graphika. For instance, since the beginning of this year, the number of links advertising undressing apps increased more than 2,400% on social media, including on X and Reddit, the researchers said. The services use AI to recreate an image so that the person is nude. Many of the services only work on women.

These apps are part of a worrying trend of non-consensual pornography being developed and distributed because of advances in artificial intelligence — a type of fabricated media known as deepfake pornography. Its proliferation runs into serious legal and ethical hurdles, as the images are often taken from social media and distributed without the consent, control or knowledge of the subject.

By 2030 we'll have AR glasses with cameras, microphones, speakers, and a built in AI assistant that will digitally remove everyone's clothing in real time.

We're finally going to learn if the "imagine everyone in their underwear" trick for public speaking really works.

Great tip. Now you're nervous with boner

[–] whiskyjack@lemmy.ca 4 points 11 months ago

Great "tip".... 😋

Hello yes I don't actually know what you look like because my VR glasses are converting everyone into the living image of Danny DeVito

[–] Knusper@feddit.de 3 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Nah, definitely not real time by 2030. That's not that far away. Maybe you could snap a single picture, have that uploaded into the cloud and sent back to you naked after half a minute or so...

[–] MagicShel@programming.dev 7 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You can do that right now. Today.

[–] Knusper@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Using such glasses? I realized, I didn't explicitly say that in the comment you replied to...

[–] MagicShel@programming.dev 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I didn't make that connection.

I don't have experience with either glasses nor "nudify" apps, but I've used AI photo editing directly. There is nothing stopping this from being real today.

[–] Knusper@feddit.de 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I do also think, it could be built today. But I mainly just don't expect such glasses to have enough mass market appeal that it would actually be available by 2030...

[–] MagicShel@programming.dev 3 points 11 months ago

Food for thought: sex and porn drive technology. An app that does this could even be a "killer app" that drives adoption. As bad as that would be. It could also be the app that gets them banned everywhere and destroys the product for public adoption.

Shit, by 2030 we'll have premium AR avatars, so you can make sure your AI nudes look good.
