    AI chat bot of an existing real person is really creepy. What the funk do you want from it anyways?

    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

    The saga continues. Fame always came with the curse of knowing there were weirdos out there that fantasize about committing sexual violence against you. This new reality is just...something else, man. Pervs cooking the ocean to see counterfeit nudes of famous actors, when there are 10s of thousands of models on the internet that will show you their tits consensually. What is wrong with people.

    Honestly? This isn't even new ... I posted plenty of porn of my ex-wife, leading to a guy offering to buy her a house if she left me. Being creepy, uh ... finds a way. I still don't quite get why people don't want to just meet someone and angle for a relationship instead of getting off in front of a glowing rectangle.

    [Sarcasm] Sure would be a shame if someone hacked them and took them offline...

    the genie is out of the bottle.

    and there's no elected official or regulator that cares.
