Lmfaooo
how naive of him to think companies didn't already scrape his facial data from anywhere he might have had a picture 10 years ago
Yup. Last year some Harvard students put together a demo where they used Meta's smart glasses and commercial apps to scan people's faces, find their social media profiles, and summarize info about them, like where they live, work, their phone numbers, and names of their relatives in real time.
So basically Watch_Dogs profilers IRL
Your "facial data" isn't private information. You give it away every time you go outside.
every time you go outside.
You guys go outside? /j
But your likeness does belong to you. Try making money off of an AI movie featuring Taylor Swift.
Don't paparazzi make plenty of money off of selling unauthorized photos of celebrities? Celebrities can control some uses of their likeness, but not all of them.
True, though for now paparazzi photos generally are “here’s the celebrity in real life doing [x]” whereas AI is “celebrity never did this thing and we applied their image / voice to it like they did.” Really difficult for celebs to shut down tabloid or fan ai-generated garbage, but I think the bigger issue for them right now is film or music studios just using their likeness to keep the profits churning
You're talking about the American concept of having no privacy in public. Not all countries are like that.

It's already done, if you have any photographs of yourself on the internet. No need to fight that battle, accept and push forward.
I suppose I'll accept it and just start pushing forward with setting fires. 🔥
Did they not give Twitter their facial data when they uploaded their avatar?
They do, but even if they didn't AI companies are going take them anyway. Bots make up 50% of internet traffic. AI companies have ignored robot.txt entries. Anything publicly available, even if it's behind a password, is accessible since companies like Reddit sell that information.
Bots make up 50% of internet traffic.
I've read a study that claimed ads were 50% of traffic by data volume.
Is anyone actually still using the internet, or is it all ad networks sending crap to bots?
This is my source : Forbes.
The source of the article is Imperva 2024 Bad Bot Report, but I cannot download the report. I do not know how they measured traffic. In this age of social media, I am going to guess it is by data volume and site visits.
Even its hidden behind a password?
Like private subreddits or private messages.
Ah when stuff is behind a password but not encrypted and still on their servers. Yes.

Reddit is about to make that somewhat more "public", I heard they are changing the pm and DMs to a chat system

ITT: People expecting the most basic of logic from a blue checkmark's brain.
wow that's evil
It's cleverly addressing a valid point. If your face is visible on the internet it can be used in an ai database without your consent. That's just where we're at.
yeah fair enough but every use of the studio Ghibli image generator is one too many
the cool thing about consent is that you're allowed to attack everyone who pretends it isn't real with any amount of force
i mean, I would allow you, but the law doesn't unfortunately
