So a 17 girl is suing an AI tech company for "allowing" people to make nude pictures of her. Do I have a problem with that? Do I think it is copyright mentality? No! Based on the story, she suffers humiliation, because people she knows cannot tell the difference between if the images are fake or not. And the boys that generated those images are trying to pose those images as real.
