[Official Updates] Follow-up plans for the project

[HumanAIGC]

Thank you all for your incredible support and interest in our project. We've received lots of inquiries regarding a demo or the source code. We want to assure you that we are actively working on preparing the demo and code for public release. Although we cannot commit to a specific release date at this very moment, please be certain that the intention to provide access to both the demo and our source code is firm.

Our goal is to not only share the code but also ensure that it is robust and user-friendly, transitioning it from an academic prototype to a more polished version that provides a seamless experience. We appreciate your patience as we take the necessary steps to clean, document, and test the code to meet these standards.

Thank you for your understanding and continuous support.

The more fake revenge porn there are the less people are going to take it seriously

That's a very naive and dangerously stupid reasoning. 1) Sex is very intimate. Maybe you like having your intimacy displayed publicly, but that's not the case for most people. Even having a fake porn of yourself is humiliating. 2) Whether you like it or not, revenge porn will have an impact on your life. Let's take the case of a happily married couple. Someone can easily break their inner trust by creating fake evidence of the husband cheating, then showing it to the wife. 3) People will judge you, and among those judging you, there will be some discriminating against you as soon as they can. Let's take a typical case: someone makes a gay porn of you, then your boss decides to fire you because he doesn't like homosexuals. Boom, you lost your job because of deepfakes.

Revenge porn will always have a negative impact, because there will never be a time when absolutely no one takes it seriously. And in before you come on and say "ok but in the case of fakes, none of that matters!" : No, all of it DOES matter. All of that will happen regardless of whether it's real or not. All it takes is for people to believe it. Even proving it's fake afterwards won't help.

1. It's a you issue if fake porn humiliates you
2. You are better off without a relationship where the partner doesn't understand what deep fake is (and can't recognize it when it's that bad)
3. You are better off not working for a boss who is both homophobic and obscurant of deep fakes at the same time (even one of these is pretty bad already)

You do not understand my point, and that's why you think it's stupid. The real implication in this case is of the opposite direction. As soon as convincing deep fakes become common no one will believe porn of a person is real even if it is

[LuluViBritannia]

@dajes Lol. Are you serious? Ok, so how about you dox yourself right now, then we create fake porns of you, distribute it to your job, friends and family, and see if it doesn't have any impact on you? Then you can come back and I'll tell you "it'S A YoU pRoBlem".

Just because YOU don't see any issue with losing a job, a relationship or your dignity, doesn't mean that it's not objectively a problem.

Does the name "Amanda Todd" ring a bell to you? Poor girl got pushed into flashing during a live video, some scumbag took a video capture of it and showed it to everyone who knows her, she ended up killing herself due to the backlash.

Now take into account that with deepfakes, anyone can fabricate the same situation towards anybody else. Still not seeing any problem?

"no one will believe porn of a person is real even if it is" LMAO. Please, for the love of intelligence: THINK.

@LuluViBritannia I see. You are beyond help

[LuluViBritannia]

@dajes Says the dumbass who is all for revenge porn becoming mainstream. Why did you ignore my points? Because you have nothing to argue.

[dajes]

@LuluViBritannia because you are beyond help. Talking about losing some dignity while not having one. Promoting obscurantism because of potential misuse. But for some reason still using computers which have been used to lead the poor girl to suicide. Typical hypocrite prone to panicking for no reason and calling everyone who is not so emotionally unstable stupid

Can you guys take your soapboxing somewhere more appropriate like YouTube comments section or on Twitter? Some of us have been trying to monitor this issue for actual release updates.

But honestly it's too late, I'm unsubbing for this issue since it's such a shit show and recommending @HumanAIGC to just close it.

Well I finally made full automated installers for magic-research/magic-animate

I am assuming your model will be like theirs :)

Good job bud, I appreciate your effort and stuff with the things you're doing. Too bad this thread is now a war place. I do support the evolution of AI. Although i don't understand what this porn thing is about. You'd need a naked image of someone to even start doing that and even then, idk how well this would handle it. But ey, thanks for your contribution!

[ReEnMikki]

It seems like a common occurence that a lot of folks interested in this repo enabled notifications for everything news, got flooded with notifications from normies/ trolls turning Github issues into a warzone or shitshow, then decided to turn it off again.

Please stay on topic! 👍

If you want to continue talking, please move this discussion to another issue.

Really amazing work！I understand your concern about the quality of the code to be released.But how about release it earlier to get the open source community working on it? Even if there are some problems with the code you publish, we will accept and understand it!
