Redditors Unwittingly Pay For Nudes From AI-Generated Woman Believing She’s Real

We’re modern folks here and we don’t shame sex workers. If women (or men!) want to sell their nudes to horny people online, who are we to judge? People have been paying for sex for eons, and as long as everything is consensual and legal, it’s all good. However, now that artificial intelligence is advancing, things are becoming a bit dicier. Case in point: Redditors with a hard-on for who they believed was a 19-year-old girl handed over tons of cash for the pleasure of seeing her nudes… only to find out she’s not a real woman at all, but AI-generated.

F19 Feeling pretty today 🙂

  1. “Claudia” seemed too good to be true. The barely legal teenager began making posts on various subreddits in which she made it clear that she was a very dirty girl. She shared that she loved giving handjobs and that she was into anal and butt plugs. Needless to say, lonely men on Reddit were all over it (and her).
  2. Men were happy to throw money her way. After “Claudia” posted a photo of her face with the caption “Feeling pretty today,” guys offered to send her cash for a bit more. “You’re looking very pretty,” one person commented. Another added, “You are absolutely gorgeous!! Will make a great trophy wife someday.”
  3. However, it wasn’t long before people started to realize something was off. It soon became clear (at least to some people) that “Claudia” wasn’t all she pretended to be. Eventually, one kind Redditor broke the news. “For those who aren’t aware I’m going to kill your fantasy. This is literally an AI creation, if you’ve worked with AI image models and made your own long enough, you can 10000% tell,” they wrote. “Sorry to ruin the surprise i guess 🤷🏿‍♂️ After browsing this person’s profile, they’re using AI-generated images that they’ve made and passing them off as real. Good on them, was waiting for this to happen eventually. Whatever you’re using for your prompts try adding blemishes and imperfections, this looks too processed but otherwise good on you. Keep up the good work. This is honestly a great use case to see if AI can sell or would go unnoticed. It did. Teach me your ways lol”
  4. The world of sex is certainly changing. Between X-rated deepfakes and AI-generated porn, the media people are using to get off is going through some major changing. How things will be regulated (if at all) and how people will feel about it remains to be seen. It could be a good thing, you never know!
