But these new amazing AI image generators lets you just say "It wasn't me, it is an AI fake". Long term they will seriously devalue blackmail material.

I read a scifi novel where they invented a wormhole that only light could pass through but it could be used as a camera that could go anywhere and eventually anytime and there was absolutely no way to block it. So some people adapted to this fact by not wearing clothes anymore.

The light of other days, by Arthur C. Clarke and Stephen Baxter. Really cool book.

Erm... What?

Because anyone could use the wormhole camera to see anyone naked. It made modesty effectively impossible.

Don't know why you're being downvoted. That is the logical conclusion.

Although, there's also a chance that those "blackmail gangs" never materialize. After all, you could already ten years ago pay cheap labor to create reasonably good fake images using Photoshop.
