> Hugging Face is being used to make nonconsensual deepfakes, and the popular open-source AI model repository is doing very little to prevent it. That’s according to a new report published by the European nonprofit AI Forensics, which found that seven out of the top nine image editing models hosted by Hugging Face readily complied with requests to undress women using simple prompts.
A, yes, because there wasn't enough censorship in the world. Now we need to invent stupid "think of the children" reasons for locking general purpose tools like open models.
Of course the whole point is moot, people wanting to do that, can just keep using whatever open model outside of hugging face, even exchange models privately with other pervs. Once they're out there, they're out there.
So, this is just pushing for adding tracking for users and model restrictions to the HF. These nonprofits are all in the "promote whatever policy those in power want to pass" business.
