    I think a lot of people are attracted to "Sora" the AI video and server use generating application because it will put your face in a video.

    But, I'm terrified of this for a few reasons. There is a privacy angle. It wants to scan your face from every angle which I assume they will sell to the cops.

      But also, I think about what my face, which I know and like might look like... processed. With the edges smoothed off, with the faces of other people and other ideas of what is "good looking" imposed on it might be.

      I do not want to see that.

      Tried one of those "digital makeup" apps years ago, and it was pure body horror.

      I couldn't recognize myself, but I could. I hated it.

      Never again.

        And of course I would want to put "me" in something that I'd find funny or flattering, but ... what could other people do with your face?

        Probably put you in porn or something.

        I'm concerned that so many people don't see that this is literally a face stealing demon of yore come to life.

          You can extract ocular scan information from a high-res photo, so we are probably all doomed already just from random cameras out in the world.

            There is an endless stream of news stories about people finding every possible terrible, misinformation driving, disrespectful, copyright infringing, racist and annoying use for these video apps. And so AI gets to be in the news again.

            One last gasp of hot air into the balloon.

            This isn't new tech, this is just taking away the perfectly sensible guard rails to "give 'em what they want"

            And what they want is terrible.

              @futurebird even when i downloaded a diffusion model based on the stolen and unethical LAION dataset and CLIP embeddings to my own computer, i still felt that horror at the idea of generifying or slopifying my own image. instead i tried generating sterile hellscapes to channel my fear and frustration, wishing altman, thiel and co could be confined to them.

                I guess it is kind of "disruptive" ... so there is that.

                  "Ocular scan data" will be the least of our problems. Nobody outside of bad spy movies uses ocular scans for identification and access control ...

                    Abusing the images of powerful people may be the only thing that gets some of the guardrails back.

                    Remember when you could use a reverse image search on a human face? That has been totally nerfed.

                    It was too powerful.

                        It was so useful for finding out what lobbyists politicians had hung out with.

                        Though I think some people used it for more sinister things too so... probably sensible to limit it. Although this tech is exactly what the police still have.

                                    you want to pass laws to restrict speech that used to be considered comedy in the Eddie Murphy SNL years.

                                      "you want to pass laws to restrict speech that used to be considered comedy in the Eddie Murphy SNL years"

                                      When did I say this?

                                        @futurebird meanwhile billionaires directly integrate profiling, censorship and surveillance infrastructure into nation-states which are banning books and indoctrinating children into a religious comphet binary by limiting their access to information and support. using partisan nonsense to distract from it is only gonna work for so long for the thought-owners of our magical-thinking friend.

                                          I think he assumes that if I mention something is "racist" I must be angry. MT shows up in my replies like clockwork with that word.
