That's for NSFW content that is using the liking of celebrities and such, it's even mentioned by name ("deepfakes"). Images generated with Stable Diffusion is not "faking explicit content ... of another person"/

>Images generated with Stable Diffusion is not "faking explicit content ... of another person"

That's just plain old not true. Stable Diffusion absolutely can generate a likeness of a celebrity, just try it here[1] (I just punched in "Uma Thurman" completely at random and got a few likenesses of her face returned to me). You can download the public model and tweak it to go even further[2], eg nude.

Yes, it can, but "deepfake" is explicitly for doing so, Stable Diffusion is not explicitly for that purpose. Just like Photoshop is not explicitly for changing a nude persons face with a celebrity, but you can do so if you can/wish.

You're incorrectly seizing specifically on the word "deepfake". The broader sentence is:

>Additionally, images or video of another person posted for the specific purpose of faking explicit content or soliciting “lookalike” pornography (e.g. “deepfakes” or "bubble porn") is also against the Rule.

So, any lookalike pornography of any kind is against the rules. "Deepfake" is just listed as an example. The method used to generate the lookalike pornography is irrelevant - Photoshop, GIMP, hand-drawing, Stable Diffusion, deepfakes, whatever - it doesn't matter, because the result is still "lookalike pornography", which itself is against the rules. There's more verbiage on that page that continues to make their stance clear:

>Intimate media include a depiction of the person in a state of nudity or engaged in any act of sexual conduct, including depictions that may have been faked.

No, I'm telling you that Stable Diffusion's sole purpose is not to facilitate "lookalike" anything, although it can be used for that.

Regardless. Say "any lookalike pornography of any kind is against the rules", then surely content fitting that rule, would be removed from the site. But if people keep submitting such content to lets say r/nsfw, then the entire subreddit won't be banned, only the content removed (by either moderators or administrators).

Instead, (hypothetically) what's happening, is that reddit is removing entire subreddits containing pornography because some of them contain look-alike pornography. You see the conflict now?

I typed Uma Thurman and I got some nightmare fuel results. Sure it looked like her but it wasn't close to the actual Uma Thurman.

AI generated doesn't mean lookalikes or deepfakes.

It can, though.

So can hand drawn or photoshopped art.

Those would be removed as well. So everything is consistent.

They aren't prevented from existing as subreddits. Only violating posts are removed.
