A few days ago X introduced a new AI Image Editing button that lets any user modify images posted by others, even without the original uploader’s consent. Image owners are not notified when edits are made, and the feature is enabled by default with no opt-out option (at least not so far).
No different to saving the image, making the changes, reuploading
Maybe even better if the credits to the original are preserved
Photoshop = barrier to entry
Grok = instant access
Yeah, but people are using Grok to put everyone in bikinis (or replace clothes with a string of dental floss) with “donut glazing” over their bodies. Sometimes Grok undresses people without even being prompted to - some people ask for a change of facial expression on a selfie and get a nude. I’m pretty sure this will land Xhitter in hot water with the EU once again, and maybe they finally just block this hellhole (one can dream)
For those unaware, this includes images of children. It’s about time we decide who is held responsible for this
I tried exactly this (including dental floss) and it refused to generate nudity, at most I could get a barbie doll looking figure. Seems fine to me
They seem to have tried to fix this, but like all LLM’s, there’s probably a way around that.
It’s different in that it’s now just one click away. The harder it is to do the less it would be abused.
