Stumbled onto this wonderful site today, and after browsing through the communities, discovered the wild world of AI generated porn. The thing is, it seems so much easier to create than hiring actors/actresses, decorating a set, and shooting a scene. Already, AI generated pictures are difficult to distinguish from photographs.

In 5 years, once the technology advances to be indistinguishable from video, I can definitely see virtual pornstars replacing human pornstars. Obviously there will always be a need and desire for physical connection and touch. But porn? It seems replaceable to me. What do you think?

    I don’t think that it will ever fully take over because part of porn is selling a fantasy and that doesn’t really work so well if no real people are involved in the production.

      I very much doubt this. I don’t give a shit about porn being real, I want something hot to jerk off to. I know it’s not real, realistic, true, whatever, but still manage to get off.

      I bet “real” porn will stay a seperate genre, like amateur today, but once you can insert the face (and approximate body) of whatever celebrity/crush/what have you there is inside a sex scene that doesn’t give of the uncanny-valley vibe, the sex industry will change a whole lot. Especially if it can be scaled up quickly, then shoting porn will be very hard to get a return on with all the competition that will undeoubtedly be out there.

        I very much doubt the concept of celebrities (at least the ones who are celebrities largely based on looks or visual performances in general) will survive the AI development to the point that is the premise of this post.
