fair request... but I've seen these images used in other repositories, and I highly doubt the women depicted are in opposition to the fame since they did post it on tik-tok for million of fans. Still, though, a confirmation of consent is important. If the authors didn't ask, that's a no-no and should be addressed.
Why does this sound like it was written by ChatGPT
@Collin-Budrick thanks for agreeing with me on a needed confirmation of consent! Imo it makes a difference whether people post something they created with their body online to show million of fans or if someone else uses their body to show their work (the researcher team could have easily use their own images / videos to do so). Especially in the academic context, this is a huge no-go and can be liable to prosecution. You can also read about a similar case if you google "Lena Forsén". Many journals have be speaking out about using images unconsentionally, e. g. Nature Nanotechnology
I'd really appreciate it, if you could send me links to the other repositories where you saw this images being used! :)

@Masa-99 here is the other repository:
@Collin-Budrick Thank you very much, I'm in contact with them and they already remove some of the pictures :)
what has inclusivity to do with it? What you describe is using someone's likeness without consent - an important topic, but one that is not relate to inclusivity in any shape or form. Since we are talking about generative AI, I think a reasonable solution is to just use generated images, of non existing people. Problem solved.
I hope this finds you well. I would like to bring to your attention a concern regarding the usage of images, particularly pictures of women, in your GitHub repository. There's a possibility that the individuals in these images may not have consented to their use.
In the spirit of promoting inclusivity and respecting individuals' privacy, I kindly request a review and consideration for alternative, more inclusive imagery in your repository. It's essential to ensure that the visual content aligns with ethical practices and fosters a welcoming environment for all contributors and users.
Many journals also have be speaking out about using images without consent, so you can get problems with publishing this. Source: 1 Journal of Modern Optics, 2 Nature Nanotechnology 3 Optical Engineering
Furthermore here are some resources for alternative pictures or just use a picture of yourself, that would be a great showcase on how quickly it is possible to make anyone dance with your application! :)
I appreciate your understanding and attention to this matter. If you have any questions or would like further clarification, please feel free to reach out!
