Taylor Swift AI Porn is Trending, And "Swifties" Are Not Happy

A flood of pornographic and explicit images of Taylor Swift havE been trending on Facebook and Twitter, under the tag "Taylor Swift AI"--like really pornographic. Many of the images are Kansas City Chiefs themed, showing Taylor nude at the game having sex with various fans in the stadium and players in the locker room, often with Taylor covered in Chiefs-colored body paint. Some have graphic messages written in body paint on Taylor's nude body, like "F K My Mouth" (with Taylor topless and tongue out) or simply topless with the number "87" (her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce's number). Some show Taylor having sex with Muppets, like Oscar the Grouch (and Kermit, in a threesome). Others are just plain lesbian porn. Millions have seen and liked the AI-generated images, as they have generated, according to some estimates, more than 45 million views, 24,000 reposts, and hundreds of thousands of likes and bookmarks. Social media platforms are quickly removing them, but they are still searchable on social media, as they are posted as quickly as they are removed.

Fans of Taylor Swift have started a counter-trend with "Protect Taylor Swift" combined with "Taylor Swift AI" to drown out the pornographic images. "Swifties," Taylor's legion of fans and followers, were also quick to weigh in on the now burgeoning trend (problem) of using AI for "revenge porn." Users commented "'taylor swift is a billionaire she'll be fine' THAT DOESN'T MEAN U CAN GO AROUND POSTING SEXUAL AI PICS OF HER LIKE A FREAK SHE'S STILL HUMAN BEING WITH FEELINGS," one user wrote. "PROTECT TAYLOR SWIFT." "those taylor ai pics are straight up sexual harassment and it's disgusting that man can do those things without repercussions," another said. "they see women as objects made for their sick fantasies and i'm so sick of it. it makes me want to throw up. PROTECT TAYLOR SWIFT." And yet another said, "if you think sexualized non-consensual ai generated photos of taylor swift being spread online isn't an issue i want you to think what that means for countless women and children who aren't taylor swift who've also been subjected to digital rape and ai porn."

While this certainly is not the end of AI porn, or AI revenge porn, having attacked Taylor Swift, there is equally certain to be more attention paid to the issue.
