Porn won’t save ai
For the simple reason that is is REALLY cheap to make and monetize real porn.

It’s really cheap to use a WAN model (or whatever the latest thing is) on my laptop to make porn without needing to find and hire a model, or even subscribe to an onlyfans. Also not paying OpenAI or anyone else besides the electric bill.

I don’t think that’s going away, and I would be a bit surprised if it’s not already cutting into demand for the real thing (which I also think isn’t going away)

Right, you can afford to do that because the company you are using is taking a loss on the product.
What company? I mean local models.
