Or maybe an accessibility improvement. You don’t need to practice creating your own works of art over many years anymore, or have enough money to commission a master artist. The AI artists are good enough and work for cheap.

I’m not saying that it’s a shift in nature? All I’ve been saying is:

A) tools to create realistic nudes have been publicly available ever since deepfakes became a thing

B) deepfakes are worse than traditional photoshopped nudes because (as you put it, a quality improvement) they’re more convincing and therefore can have more detrimental effects
