with AI you can give it very precise requirements on what you want to see
Setting aside the fact that you could do this already with a sufficiently well-tagged library of traditional pornography, you’re neglecting two big caveats
People’s porn tastes are so rarified that they need exacting specifications in order to enjoy it
AI consistently and faithfully delivers on queries, rather than pumping out a bunch of vague approximations full of uncanny valley graphical artifacts
There are people who would pay to have porn videos created to their taste.
And they can already do that with Cam Girls, for infinitesimally less than it costs to run a high end AI model.
Now people who have such extremely specific desires don’t have to shell out thousands for a private video from their favorite star.
The high price is what makes the luxury good appealing. If everyone can get it, then it isn’t what a handful of high rollers are after.
The real “money in AI porn” isn’t reshuffled budget-tier bulk content. It’s the promise of exclusive ultra-high-end luxury taboo. And the end of that road is just the porn version of Star Citizen. Someone who has baited a bunch of 4chan stogies with more money than sense into putting up $40k for the opportunity to have a five-way with Leia Oregon, Jessica Rabbit, and Rhea Ripley in six months to a year, once we’ve tuned the prompt just right.
But that’s not any kind of industry. It’s just scams.
The running cost of the AI model is shared between users. cam girl donations - technically also, but if too many people donate, you get less attention personally.
Personally I’m just going to keep on watching free porn. The gambling ads at least pay out to real people instead of fossil fuel companies.
