The same place that had used panties in vending machines and this is somehow shocking.
There's still a difference between a piece of clothing that may or may not have been worn by anonymous women and creations using real people without their knowledge or consent. Not trying to defend those vending machines but these aren't the same in terms of results and potential effects on the victims.
Photoshops were a thing before AI. Nobody cares because its just a weird thing creepy do in private.
Photoshop requires at least some skill and doesn't allow for mass production of fakes the way generative AI does. Same problem, different scale.
Pasting a face over a body in photoshop is just as easy as snapping a polaroid of someone and pasting their face on a porn mag. AI just makes it faster.
