    Since when could someone do this in Photoshop with a couple of clicks and zero training, for free and on any device? Since when has Adobe specifically marketed Photoshop as a tool for creating sexually explicit images?

      You know, somebody probably said the exact same thing about Photoshop when it first came out? Back when cutting up photos and pasting them together was a thing. Then again, somebody probably said the same thing about the advent of photography too, during the days of woodcuts and oil paintings.

          Fuck knows. It’s not like I made any such claim, you just decided to put up a strawman argument.

            How is it a “strawman” when it relates specifically to the topic being discussed? A simple web search can bring up countless examples of generative AI tools that are designed to “undress” or “nudify” women. You seem to believe there is zero difference between using one of these sites and using Photoshop, so I am asking when Adobe marketed Photoshop as an undressing tool. The ease of use and access is the key difference here that you are trying to avoid acknowledging.

              My question was very simple and limited in scope:

              Would the impact have been any different if they had used photoshop?

              I did not make any sweeping comments, and I would appreciate if you stopped trying to claim things on my behalf.

                They didn’t use Photoshop, they used generative AI. Maybe you should spend a little less time trying to save face and a little more time thinking about why that might have been.

                    That tends to happen when you make thoughtless comparisons, get called out then cry “s-s-s-strawman!!!” instead of engaging with the relevant issue(s).

                    I deal with this a lot and it’s funny to see it happen to someone else and respond in a similar way.
