Also ban photo editors because it's lower margin of entry. Those are not models in first place but VAE that modify model output. To use it you need some sort of understanding how to connect correct VAE to correct models so you need to setup tools to do it or write code. If you can set up tools you can as well train your own VAE on any small subset of pictures of any person on any hardware in under an hour with those tools.

Not that I support generating naked pictures of people but this is how it works and has always worked. It's not models ! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variational_autoencoder

    Why would they be VAEs instead of LoRas?

    It's also incredibly simple to use these things, you don't need any technical knowledge.

    Can be also loras that doesn't change the fact that those are not models. VAE is just easier to train. Also saying something is simple is very subjective.

    You're splitting hairs - they are models that change the output of freely accessible models. Just because they can't generate images without those freely accessible models doesn't mean they're not a kind of model on their own.

    It's not really subjective given the amount of resources on this. You don't need technical knowledge to follow a guide that describes:

    1. Download sd-webui
    2. Copy model & LoRA into the appropriate folders
    3. Open start script
