Curious to see how people feel about the growing trend of AI influencers and AI generated fashion models. I’m building a SAAS product in this space and I am constantly trying to find the ethical boundaries and lines. It is a really difficult line to walk. The use of AI influencers and AI-generated fashion models brings some obvious ethical concerns like misrepresentation & authenticity, transparency, job displacement, bias & discrimination, data privacy, and accountability. The list could go on but I’m curious how you all are building with these ethical issues in mind? What kind of safeguards are you building into your tools?

I think a few clear boundaries are 1) Copying real people's likeness without their consent. Like those AI generated pics of Taylor Swift that went viral a couple months ago. Not cool. 2) Stealing peoples videos and just face-swapping an AI face. You're still stealing someones body & content. Not cool. 3) Generating graphic AI images of children. Gross.
