It's not illegal to to work on, sell, or distribute the models. And making that illegal is what the first commenter said would be dangerous to do, since then regular people wouldn't be able to compete with corporation's abilities.

Once the models and portable hardware are good enough, and it's just a matter of time, I think you're underestimating how ubiquitous it will become.

Every teenage boy will have a pair of nudie glasses in the form of their smartphone running open source models, and you think they're just going to not use them?

I think you again vastly overestimate how many people are going to run their own AI versus using a sanitized, policy-driven, managed platform version that's cloud based (e.g. Dall-E and ChatGPT right now).

It's possible today (and usually better) to do a lot of things locally, but yet still almost everything routes through an app to a platform on your smartphone and the few remaining things that don't route through a platform using your phone's browser.

When it becomes one click to see the chick across from you naked, tell me how many 16 year old boys won't. You are far too naive to be having this conversation.

It's not naive to think that corporations will continue to win the "AI" war. It's actually pretty naive to think otherwise.

I also dunno why you think that all of the resources in oss AI will focus their efforts on making it easy to generate excellent, likely already illegal deep fake porn of random teenagers in "one click".

I've been using oss for decades and almost nothing is that easy to do even when it could be. Why would people focus their efforts on this?

Also also, I don't get why you think that generating AI porn of people around you is:

A) so much better than just watching the millions of hours of already available porn

B) anything even remotely similar to "seeing someone naked"
