Have you heard of Deepnude? This is an APP that can easily synthesize female nude photos, as long as a female photo is put in, you can generate very realistic nude photos through digital technology, and this software is only for women, men’s photos do not work.
The app comes in two versions, one free and one for $50. The free version will have a very prominent watermark on the generated image, while the paid version will simply have a small “FAKE” in the corner of the image, indicating that it is a fake photo.
However, with a slight cropping of such a picture, the “FAKE” logo can easily disappear.
Imagine how you would feel if you found a “nude photo” of yourself on social media one day.
The app caused an uproar and was boycotted by many people, and eventually the removal of the software was the end of the matter.
This is not really a new thing.
There was also a software called Deepfake on the market, which simply means “changing heads”, which can replace the face on a photo with someone else’s face, and the technology has reached the level of fake.
Many celebrities have suffered from this, and they have been made with a lot of false pictures, many of which are even unbearable.
Some people may wonder that such technology can also be implemented with P-chart software, but why just blame these apps?
In today’s era of rapid development of science and technology, technology that facilitates people has sprung up in front of people’s eyes.
Technology itself is not good or bad, the key depends on how people use it. The same technology, in the hands of those who have the world in mind, benefits one party, and if it is used incorrectly by those with evil intentions, it will naturally cause harm.
Although inventors try to avoid some risks when inventing technology, they can never control the user’s mind.
Nowadays, some inventors take advantage of some people’s psychology and use vulgar content as a gimmick to win the attention of the public and turn technology into a blade in the hands of executioners.
In addition to satisfying some people’s bad ideas, these software have caused a group of innocent women to suffer.
Technology is harmless, but the human heart is divided into good and evil.
It is now a time of relative equality between men and women, but not everything is so good.
In rape incidents, there are always many discordant voices that do not blame the perpetrator, but blame the women’s dressing problems; In many incidents of humiliation of young girls, many bad media portrayed imaginary girls being hurt, eating human blood steamed buns to inflict secondary injuries on victims; In many sexual and physical concerns, women are always the first victims.
This is an “era of consumption”, not only for material consumption, but also for human sex and flesh.
In today’s context of rapid technological development, these ethical issues have become issues that must be discussed and resolved.
The seething “Forgiveness Treasure” that was debated some time ago, this is a software that claims to be designed for honest people.
There has always been a saying that many girls who are not disciplined will eventually find an honest person as a “takeover man”. This software can input the photos of girls and use big data to detect the registration information of women on dating sites. Through such means, these honest people are protected from the persecution of these women.
However, this is an invasion of the privacy of others using big data technology, and registration on major social media is everyone’s freedom, and information should be protected. And the development of these software is blatantly “stealing” other people’s information.
Not only that, but what do people who use this software think? Perhaps they were once a group of “victims”, but putting a picture of a girl in it to detect it subconsciously is disrespectful to girls. This is a hypothetical premise that labels the girl as a “bad girl”.
For example, this is similar to a person who loses his wallet, suspects that everyone who has touched him is a thief, and secretly uses some technology to probe the privacy of these people to determine whether the other party has stolen.
Some people may say that “the body is not afraid of the shadow oblique”, but just imagine, as a good person, why are you suspected for no reason?
The inventor should not only be the controller of the technology, but also the bearer of social responsibility. While thinking about economic interests and meeting the needs of some people, the least we can do is not to hurt others.
Technology is not meant to be a facilitator of a consumer spree, but to make people’s lives genuinely convenient.
