“Experts in Europe warn that these devices are used to record strangers without their consent, possibly breaching EU law.”

“A small LED light is designed to indicate when recording is taking place, but RTBF’s investigators found that tutorials explaining how to conceal the indicator are abundant and easily accessible online.”

Sometimes I have a hard time deciding who I despise more, parasite Mark Zuckerberg or its witless hosts who keep using its products—yes, Zuck’s pronoun is it. Ban Ray-Ban, for frick’s sake.

      Most of the women I’ve actually talked to about it are either asexual or have practically no sex drive so take this with a grain of salt, but I think it mostly comes down to men being more “visual” and a lot of this new technology facilitates that. The women I’ve talked to all prefer porny literature which the only technology I can think of that helps with that would be LLMs.

      As for why men can’t resist being creepy with it, I think the majority can. Those who can’t have shitty impulse control and being horny overrides their better sense. Not that that’s an excuse.

        I don’t think that’s what they’re saying, just that men use it a lot more to be creepy. Have you seen women making videos with meta glasses? Or girls in school using deepfake tech to blackmail their classmates? Probably not.

          It almost entirely comes down to porn preferences. Women tend to prefer pornographic stories while men tend to prefer pornographic images and videos. There’s a reason “romance” novels are one of the absolute largest genres for books and that their demographic skews heavily towards women. I would not at all be surprised to find a certain number of women using LLMs to generate erotic stories possibly featuring acquaintances or celebrities in them. Same impulse, different medium.
