No, this is beyond likeness. Parodying or playing a role in a movie or a documentary where likeness can be invoked is far different from such (almost) perfect copies. To add on it, this type of AI content is never used with likeness in mind, but it's making use of the name of the person illustrated. @@757Princess
Yes, we cant have the economy continue down this terrible road! Thank you for spreading the word and letting people know we cant deal with 4 years of someone who doesn't even say what she'll do in office. Thanks for spreading the word!
@@OilerPlierLiterally all they said is making sure to vote… it’s up to you how you wish to vote, but it is important to make your voice heard. Local elections can be so close that just a handful of people can make the difference, and the electoral college makes it so just a few hundred thousand votes in key districts can tip the scales. Vote how you wish, but don’t forget to do it!
Fun Fact: There are multiple "Swifties 4 Kamala" or "Swifties 4 Harris" accounts on TikTok, but the largest has 113.7K followers; meanwhile, the largest Swifties for Trump account has 3,402 followers.
Ha! 😂😂😂 I was just wondering what the numbers were (I don't have tiktok) I've seen a alot of 'Swifties for Kamala' on politics channel comments page's last few days lol
@@dysmissme7343 not necessarily. But I definitely enjoyed learning about Mark Zuckerberg yesterday. I don't know much about him or care but D'Angelo made a video and I learned a lot 🤷🏾♀️. Also people like us don't care about the news, hence why we aren't on news channels.
the other ai images of her that were spreading a few months ago were also just so vile and horrifying. i really hope she's able and chooses to do something about it all.
There are some recent laws in TN that regulate how someone can use someone's image. If she sued with that in mind she'd be the first one so it'd be interesting to see how far it goes.
@@jenniferoshiro6835So cause trump might want it you wouldn’t want it, that’s your entire reasoning? So if Trump wanted stricter laws against pedophiles you’d be against it just cause he’s trump?
The chronically introverted 32-year-old that I am right now literally cannot fathom the deep desire that I once had to be world famous when I was a child and teenager. 🤦🏾♂️
Its especially bad because AI is getting very good at making "good enough" images where someone would easily think it eas a real photo if they weren't vigilant for AI content. I don't look forwards to the years of kids having to tell their parents over and over "no mom/dad, that image is not real"
generative ai is fr the worst thing that ever happened to humanity. im not even joking, this can get so much worse and its already so so so so bad. i really do not understand how there's not active laws being made against it. its not just a problem with artists, it's EVERYBODY'S problem, its desastrous to everyone, and nobody doing shit to literally erradicate this shit? wtfffffff
It's particularly aggravating in news and current events. how false information now gets accompanied with visuals that lead people to validate it as true more easily. It's a whole different, and largely unexplored layer of the effects of utterances meant to normalize dehumanization and antagonistic attitudes now having a bias-confirming visual. There's real danger in that.
@@faithstea I don’t care - if he put them all out the same day I’d have no self control and watch them all at once and then have nothing to watch I liked. Uploading as sprinkles rather than video dump is good for viewers. And yes I realize I am a consumer of the machine 😅
How about all the women and children having their clothes removed with ai and posted. Only they don’t have large platforms and money to defend themselves.
this also just happened to taylor and since she does have the platform and money to defend herself she could really make a change. so let's just hope she does that.
Actually a silver lining here. Swift could get a court ruling which can used as precedent. Pro Bono lawyers are way more likely to take cases if there is precedent so it could be the opportunity for all those targeted by the ai generated stuff to get it taken down. It's terrible that it's happening to so many but there's a chance the system could be forced to work for the people.
Honestly it's almost worse that you can do stuff like this to normal people if they post enough photos. I say almost worse because normal people don't have the money and protections she has
You should watch a fan made documentary about how Ariana Grande and Taylor Swift exposed their toxic fans especially impersonators and wannabes on RU-vid channel.
@@lintheelfY’all really don’t know the difference between what’s on your bank account and what your net worth is bruh, her music catalogue is what makes up most of that number, she doesn’t have a billion dollars lying around in cash
I don't know if anyone else has commented on this but thank you for having proper subtitles on your videos :) i'm Deaf and it helps me enjoy your content so much!
@@Jess-y7c If this seems to anyone like Beyonce acted, and Taylor refuses to, the cases are different. Violating a song copyright, it's very easy, very clear-cut reason to send a cease-and-desist. It's very obvious if Trump posted Taylor SONGS, Taylor's team would've sent one too. The AI thing would have to be defamation, which are famously hard cases to win. Believe me I'd love for this fuck to lose all his money, but it probably won't happen. (This video speaks on this too)
So tired of this AI mess. I’m a visual artist and was hit hard with AI “Art” from the beginning, with the nonconsensual scraping of artwork and data. And when our community voiced concerns we were dismissed and now it’s gotten so much worse and worse. Hopefully more people understand and help push for data and labor rights. The fact that these companies can steal all of our data and use it without anyone’s consent is insane!!!!! Hopefully all these companies get held accountable.
would really love to see Taylor be a more avid champion in the movement against generative AI, since this is not her first encounter with people doing awful things with her likeness.
She already has been, look up the Elvis act in Tennessee. But also, everyone in the media always has her name in their mouth, and she’s not usually one to respond with statements. (also we don’t need TAYLOR to do anything, we need our GOVERNMENT to do literally anything.)
@@hana-xn7vw part of me does want her to endorse kamala and encourage her fans to vote, but if that happens then everyone will look to her if things don’t go well politically and blame her for any problems. it’s ridiculous.
I'm guessing it won't happen. It's too close to a political statement and that might effect her bag more than these fake images. Taylor will never take an action that results in her fame and fortune decelerating an iota.
She and her team are clearly weighing their options. And I cannot WAIT til she comes out and speaks on this. Cuz we all know who she WON’T be endorsing.
@lasagnahog7695 it is mostly an humorous statement but it has basis in generative AI and its legal implications for copyright (and other topics) being very fresh. Lawsuits on generated content have started to appear so we are waiting on clearer precedents to be decided by the courts.
There’s also a higher standard for her legally because she’s a public figure. Essentially, celebrities have to meet a much higher evidentiary burden in court (compared to the average person) when they sue for defamation. Courts reason that, by being in the public eye, celebrities have basically waived the right to sue in these cases, unless they can prove the false statements were super egregious/intentional/harmful/verifiably untrue.
It's also of note that Taylor would never say who she wants you to vote for. She states her beliefs, she states who she personally plans to vote for, but she never tells her audience who to vote for. Instead, she urges people to register to vote and make informed decisions when casting their vote. That's it. Although it's not surprising that the conservative party feels threatened by more people registering to vote.
@@thebeesknees2503because that’s who she was voting for. Big difference between celebrating the person you’re voting for vs saying “hey if you’re my fan then you’d vote for this person”
@@DUELISTKlNGDOMyep she said she was voting for him. didn’t tell people who they should vote for. like trumps ai pic says “Taylor wants you to vote trump”
People make fun of her for the "asylum where they raised me" line but just this one incident makes me think she should be more extra actually bc what the fuck
They also completely didn’t understand that line at all the asylum she’s talking about is the music industry and dealing with the media the line is not about where she grew up.
exactly. im not even a fan yet i knew exactly what she meant when she sang that line- it was never about her growing up privileged or wealthy, but about how terrible it was being in the music industry when you’re so young, and time and time people have proven her right
Considering she had a revenge porn made by one of the most influential rappers of all time for millions to actually side with him and having your life and relationships torn apart since she was 16 a "MINOR" And getting called a nazi princess just for existing? And even after you made your political stance known, still people calling you performative. Working you ahh off since she was a child and still getting called mid or industey plant or white privilege. As a poc its infuriating how now being a white woman or being loved by majority of white women is considered an insult even though she clearly is loved around the globe. I think she was right when she said asylum.
*We need to ban A.I. deepfakes EXCEPT for a very limited set of cases. For example, movies should be able to use deepfakes for visual effects, but they should be based on real actors who should get paid the same. In general, deepfakes should be illegal otherwise.*
@@DeezN00tz99if you heard the sentence correctly since everyone is getting the song wrong and misinterpreted the song line goes My friends used to play a GAME where we pick a decade we could live in instead of this I’d say the 1830’s but without all the RACISTS AND GETTING MARRIED OFF TO THE HIGHEST BID everyone would look down cause it wasn’t fun now SEEMS LIKE IT WAS NEVER EVEN FUN BACK THEN as in the 1830’s Nostalgia is a minds trick IF I HAD BEEN THERE I WOULD HATE IT back in the 1830’s clearly you didn’t understand the song and many songs on her new album are calling out conservative creeps so maybe think again the lines I uppercased were to help you understand it better hope it understand it better this time. She has called them out in many songs in the past two on both Midnights and TTPD let’s not forget GOD SAVE THE MOST JUDGMENTAL CREEPS WHO SAY THEY WANT WHATS BEST FOR ME SANCTIMONIOUSLY PERFORMING SOLILOQUIES while this song may be calling out some fans But Daddy I Love him is also calling out Republicans.
A couple months ago, I (40yro) was talking to my dad (63). We’re both steeped in the old school tabletop Cyberpunk. We often use it as a comparison to today. Between all the State actors spying on its people, to out of control tech. After complaining about the state of tech, exhaustedly I quip, “I expected more of the cool cybernetics before our technological dystopia started.”
taylor probably hasn’t responded because she finished the european leg of her tour less than 24 hours ago. this is the first break she gets in 3+ months and it disgusts me that this is the first thing she will be confronted with when she’s back in the US. she has made it very clear how important politics are to her and trump has acknowledged her being outspoken before. he knows she’s a democrat and would not want her face on this. i don’t understand how he is still allowed to run for president after this because the intention to get less politically educated swifties to vote for him is crystal clear to me.
@@anpatman girl she literally called trump a racist homophobic fascist who stokes the fires of white supremacy i don't think she's his biggest fan LOL (and im not a swiftie btw)
I think what is sooo frustrating about this as well is that now people are pissed at her for NOT denouncing it, despite the fact that she had an entire terrorist attack planned against her show 2 weeks ago; multiple little girls being stabbed and killed at a dance party; and multiple stalkers arrested in the past 6 months. like wow i wonder why she may not want to denounce the leader of a legitimate violent cult (Jan 6th anyone) 2 weeks after a planned terrorist attack and the month from hell
she made a statement regarding the vienna shows and some people are still unsatisfied. i feel like taylor is a really particular or extreme case of fame where this many people, even fans, think they are entitled to the way she handles her business. the minute something happens they expect her to publicly act immediately, and if she doesn't they jump straight to the worst possible assumptions. seriously can't think of another person who incite this much rage from strangers for literally just taking time to work through problems. also, literally none of these things are her fault to begin with, and somehow she's the one getting shit on the most, by her own fans of all people.
I think the first response to anything political from her is going to big and bring a lot of attention and tbh, I don't want that attention to go to Trump. Her first statement needs to about Kamala then maybe addressing this AI situation.
Seriously! She’s trying to stay safe by ignoring the crazies instead of giving them something new to be angry at. It’s been her way of dealing with it ever since that “Aryan Princess” mess. She avoided it at all costs because she didn’t want a militant cult to decide she was enemy no. 1. When she finally decided to make her political ideology known it received a lot of backlash from those crazies and she’s been even more at risk since
Im so scared of this AI shit, people make fake OF links of my Instagram and try to scam people, i dont want my face on AI generated inappropriate images 😭
I don't even fuck with Taylor Swift like that, but between this, the knife attack at the Taylor Swift dance class, and the Vienna incident, I actually feel oretty bad for her. If i were her, I'd be beyond terrified. Edit: I said it was a shooting but it was actually an attack with a knife. Point still stands though.
well. taylor has the opportunity to do yet another good thing for the world (besides donating years worth of food to food banks and blocking kanye west from the number one album slot) and get ai restricted and trump blasted into oblivion.
Oh wow, it's almost as if artists and other creatives have been warning about the dangers of generative AI from the start. It's almost as if this is one of the exact things we said would happen. But no, people got so worked up about telling artists they weren't stolen from because they posted things on the internet and discrediting the value of creatives.
ppl are treating taylor like she's not even a human. it is getting so bad that as a fan im exhausted and upset by it , i cannot imagine how she feels. it has gotten to the point of wishing death upon her and her fans in public and now we are dealing w deadly attacks on children and planned terrorist attacks.............
I hope she sues him. Chances are, her lawyers are at work over it as we speak. That's why she hasn't said anything yet. She won't be advised to if her lawyers are on it, either. So fans and the press need to lay off her and wait patiently. Karma is her boyfriend... ❤
The misinformation is just disgusting. And that's not even factoring in the unethical use of AI images of a non-consenting artist. The political campaigns are more protected than artists' autonomy of their own images and messages.
i honestly do hope swift ends up issuing a lawsuit only so i can THEN hope that it brings good legal protections against AI deepfakes and propaganda to the table. taylor is likely the person with the biggest reach, most power, and highest chance of getting us there currently.
@xXxxSharkLoverxXx yeah I'm one of those ppl I love her music it helped me through shitty times but I just stop at that idk why ppl includ her in things she is not included in its just weird or maybe cuz I'm not from the US I don't get it
[Thor Voice] ANOTHER!!!! (Yes I intend to say this every time lol) D’Angelo, these videos are so much fun, I love getting your opinion, and your set and design is so beautiful. You’re crushing it. The video is so good and looks so nice I forgive you for the jump scares of trump, Elon and AI lol
Hopefully now that she’s going to be back in the states (she’s been in Europe since May and hasn’t been back much) she’ll have the chance to endorse Kamala
i am actually scared, this shit is insane. especially after i kearned more of the population than not is dumber than we imagine and fall for all of it.
@@sharpeningtheaxe cause he exudes an unthreatening air of authority and confidence and is extremely eloquent like my dad would be if he hadn't left to go get milk (?) I dunno bro it's not that deep
I haven't heard anyone point out the significance of the timing and it's terrifying but makes perfect sense. Thank you for talking about this and I hope your video reaches far and wide!
I feel like at this rate, we’re going to have to pass legislation that says AI generated images have to have giant watermarks like stock photos you haven’t paid for or something, just so people can’t use them deceptively
In all honesty I absolutely hate Taylor Swift, but as a woman myself I genuinely can't imagine the sheer horror of having to see people use your body in that way. That's actually nightmare fuel. Hope he feels the full wrath of her gazillion dollar legal team.
I still struggle to say “I absolutely hate this person” when I’m talking about people in my life who treated me horribly. To say that on the internet about a singer is wild.
Hope Taylor does something to fight and makes the offenders regret their choices. Only too few people can afford to fight off such a problem and/or push the lawmakers to do their job and keep up with AI usage and effects.
Every time there's some hate campaign about Taylor for literally no reason it reminds me that we still need her. Even if I dislike what she's doing with her private jet (plus she's a billionaire among other things, no such thing as a moral billionaire and stuff) I still think she's always a prime example for why we do indeed still need feminism and public female figures. Truly, everytime they say "look she did something bad!!" I just think "yknow she was right. If she was a man literally no one would care." Like, Reminder: there's r@pists out there, numerous ones, who are still very famous and faced pretty much no repercussions for their actions. Meanwhile Taylor regularly gets in trouble for existing just a tad controversially. Again, she's no saint, but as a woman there's no way for me to say i dislike her. She's simply done too much for feminism. Not a sentence I ever thought I'd say but here we are. I'm tired of pretending Taylor is the worst. Any other rich person does similar stuff. Not good stuff, but the same as her and no one holds them responsible.
The funny thing about the private jet thing was she wasn't even in the top 50 celebrities (I think no.1 was Travis Scott),, she basically got targeted more than everyone else because she's the most famous person right now.
