This is the best summary I could come up with:
Graphika researchers—who study how communities are manipulated online—traced the fake Swift images to a 4chan message board that's "increasingly" dedicated to posting "offensive" AI-generated content, The New York Times reported.
Fans of the message board take part in daily challenges, Graphika reported, sharing tips to bypass AI image generator filters and showing no signs of stopping their game any time soon.
“While viral pornographic pictures of Taylor Swift have brought mainstream attention to the issue of AI-generated non-consensual intimate images, she is far from the only victim," López G. said.
Rather than expecting platforms to chase down the harmful content, López G. recommended that AI companies should get ahead of the problem, taking responsibility for outputs by paying attention to evolving tactics of toxic online communities reporting precisely how they're getting around safeguards.
"These images originated from a community of people motivated by the ‘challenge’ of circumventing the safeguards of generative AI products, and new restrictions are seen as just another obstacle to ‘defeat,’" López G. said.
Experts told The Times that 4chan users were likely motivated to participate in these challenges for bragging rights and to "feel connected to a wider community."
