Yeah I mean it's just a more easy to use Photoshop basically.

I agree people need to understand better the privacy risks of social media.

When you put out photos of yourself on the internet you should expect anyone to find them and do whatever they want to them.

Expect, yeah I guess. Doesn't mean we should tolerate it. I expect murder to happen on a daily basis. People editing images of me on their own devices and keeping that to themself, that's their business. But if they edit photos of me and proliferate, I think it becomes my business. Fortunately, there are no photos of me on the internet.

Edit: I basically agree with you regarding text content. I'm not sure why I feel different about images of me. Maybe because it's a fingerprint. I don't mind so much people editing pictures I post that don't include my face. Hmm.

Photoshop has the same technology baked into it now. Sure, it has "safeguards" so it may not generate nudes, but it would have no trouble depicting someone "having dinner with Bill Cosby" or whatever you feel is reputation destroying.

Pretty sure they're talking about generative AI created deepfakes being easier than manually cutting out someone's face and pasting it on a photo of a naked person, not comparing Adobe's AI to a different model.

Ok then it's a more easy to use GIMP.
