Should deepfakes be allowed?

Now, this topic is similar to the Loli content discussed a few months ago now. I personally am ok with loli content being its animated and done by a studio who, im sure, have lawyers to look into the legality of it these days. BUT if loli content were to be purged from this site, I would not miss it or take offense.

  • Brought it up because it is illegal in the UK and if i remember right, Australia. The tag and media remains here even through a Poll by the community.

My view on this subject is a no go. Since its not any studio who is going through the hoops of legality to make this work. Youd have to get permission/consent from the actor/actress in use and the studio/company who created the scene the imagery is being “deepfaked”. Sounds like royalties and sounds like it would have to be payed to have access to. Not something someone with access to the software and spare computing power should be legally allowed to do.

I appreciate this community and respect many of the people on it. I enjoy interacting with others on here aswell! I like how we can have these discussions and opinions on things brought up every now and again. I feel like I can get an informed decision and different views on things after reading 'em.

TLDR: Not a fan of Deepfakes as a media other then a dumb meme about someone singing Chug jug with you or enter other cringy parody song here. I get a few laughs out of them anyway.
