And this company’s revenue is in the billions per year. BILLIONS. A 500k fine is not even spare change for them, is literally a rounding error. It’s as if when you go buy groceries, they round up a $0.95 price to $1.
Let’s say a user generates one image per minute. If they do that for an hour, that’s $30M. If they did that once a day for a month, that’s almost a billion dollars.
These services have hundreds of millions of users. Collectively, if they don’t stop, the fines will be total-world-GDP levels in days or weeks.
Unfortunately it’s unlikely a court will fine them based on a single person generating thousands of images. And it’s also unlikely they will fine them based on many people generating a few each, as it would be a slow and arduous process. I just can’t see it happening in reality.
They need to fear the first image generated, not the 1000th one.
If a user generates 1 pic a minute, in a day he generates 1440 pics, that means potentially 1440 people hurt by a single asshole in a day.
I don’t care how much it will cost to xitter, I care for how much will those people suffer.
Xitter needs to be worried that a single user generates one image, not that a bunch of assholes generate some thousands or even a million images because for each image, there’s gonna be a person (or more) suffering.
Obviously yes, one image is too many. But companies only care about money, and if their money is going to evaporate because of their stupid technology, they’ll figure out a way to shut it off before it costs them.
The alternative is the status quo, which is that there are no consequences so there are no changes. Or maybe you make the fine ten quadrillion dollars for the first image generated, which is never gonna fly.
Yeah, but let’s get to the worst case scenario: A bunch of assholes star generating images like crazy. They manage to create some million images of innocent people. So many images that xitter can’t pay the fine, get dissolved and that’s all.
Meanwhile, millions of people have pornographic deepfakes of them on the internet, FOREVER.
No. We can’t wait for that to happen, xitter needs to close the technology before the first image puts them in trouble.
500k fines? lmao. So just a rounding error?
Did you read the article? Its 500k per nude.
So just a rounding error?
Grok generated about 6,700 undressed images per hour.

That would be 3.35 BILLION dollars per hour if the maximum 500k fine was enforced for each.
These things are nonconsensual sexual image machine guns, dude.

That for a fucking CSAM picture.
