The advances of the artificial intelligence (AI) command public attention, with abilities unimagined just a few years ago. A new example of the capabilities of these technologies is Claudia, a 19-year-old girl who is all the rage for her nudity and who, as revealed, is not a person of flesh and blood but the work of an image generator.
The young woman achieved massive dissemination on platforms such as Redditwith their sensual images in exchange for a few dollars, a trend that has grown in recent years, especially on environments like OnlyFans.
Claudia’s particularity is her non-existence in the real world. “For those who don’t know, I’m going to kill your fantasy. This is literally an AI creation, if you’ve ever worked with AI image models long enough you can 10,000% affirm it,” one user commented on Reddit below. a selfie of the virtual girl.
As revealed by Rolling Stone magazine, the beautiful Claudia is the brainchild of two computer science students whose identities remain anonymous. Speaking to that publication, they said they opened the account as a joke after reading that a man had made $500 selling photos of other women.
When they started, they made some income with pictures of naked Claudia, generated with an AI system. That happened before the truth came out.
“You could say this whole account is just a test to see if you can fool people with AI images,” they commented. “You could compare it to the youtubers virtuales they create their own characters and play as a completely different person. Honestly, we didn’t think it would get that much traction.”
The pornographic industry is renewed with technology.
How was Claudia created?
According to Business Insider, the girl was designed with Stable Difussion, one of the best-known AI image generators. Charm makers used descriptions such as “no makeup female with shoulder-length dark hair, simple background, straight hair, and bangs.”
AI-generated adult content was not born with Claudia. A group called Unstable Difussion (generator reference) launched a Kickstarter campaign to legitimize that variant of pornography, in which no real people appear.
They did not do badly: they collected almost 60,000 dollars on the crowdfunding platform, though they were kicked off the platform for the type of content they were promoting.
Unlike the deepfakes, who in the porn field “deceive the eye” by editing existing videos, with real personalities; AI pornography creates content from scratch, with virtual protagonists.
