Importantly, this took deepfake undressing from a tiny niche to a huge thing:
This means that it's no longer a niche or really exceptional thing, but that harassment of women with this method is now pervasive.

The real problem here is that Xitter isn't supposed to be a porn site (even though it's hosted loads of porn since before Musk bought it). They basically deeply integrated a porn generator into their very publicly-accessible "short text posts" website. Anyone can ask it to generate porn inside of any post and it'll happily do so.
It's like showing up at Walmart and seeing everyone naked (and many fucking), all over the store. That's not why you're there (though: Why TF are you still using that shithole of a site‽).
The solution is simple: Everyone everywhere needs to classify Xitter as a porn site. It'll get blocked by businesses and schools and the world will be a better place.
I thought the real problem is that it is generating *illegal porn.
Well, the CSAM stuff is unforgivable but I seriously doubt even the soulless demon that is Elon Musk wants his AI tool generating that. I'm sure they're working on it (it's actually a hard computer science sort of problem because the tool is supposed to generate what the user asks for and there's always going to be an infinite number of ways to trick it since LLMs aren't actually intelligent).
Porn itself is not illegal.
He has 100% control over the ability to alter or pull this product. If he's leaving it up while he's generating illegal pornography that is on him.
And no s*** I'm concerned about the illegal stuff.
