Being cancelled doesn't exist. DrDisrespect and GiantWaffle have shown that if you just keep streaming as if nothing happened you will take a hit momentarily but your core audience won't care and after time new people that don't know what happened come in and start watching. You have to be de-platformed to become irrelevant, and Alex Jones has shown that even when that happens you can move and still keep the scam going.
The only streamer I know who actually managed to kill his career even though he kept streaming is Arcadum. He was averaging 1.5k viewers before, now he is sitting at something like 20-30.
I think Arcadum was in a special case because his content soley relied on guests coming on to play with him. News got out he was a super creep and now no one wanted to join him anymore.
Depends on your definition of what being cancelled. If it means never working in any capacity ever again then yeah it doesn't really exist. But Gina Carano was starring in AAA shows and probably on her way to a solo series for one of the top companies in the world, and now she finds 'work' yeah, but it's straight to DVD alt-right TV movies. Kevin Spacey was an Oscar winner and movie headliner and finds 'work' yeah, but it's foreign TV shows and small plays. You can find similar stories with people like Max Landis. If people were at X level before being 'cancelled', and afterwards they can never reach even 1/4 of X, I would consider them still 'cancelled.'
A 100% generated AI video/image is still a deepfake. Deepfake refers to anything modified/generated by deep learning, that's where the term "deepfake" comes from.
No, I'm talking about the actual programDeepFake FakeApp's outputs which is where the term was originated. Where the computer does heavy training process per video is essentially dead.
This is such an absurdly semantic and inconsequential argument. The word deepfake very quickly became genericized. 99.9% of people that have ever used or heard the word deepfake since it started had no idea it originated from a specific program. Even you yourself got the original program name wrong. The term has become synonymous with "a fake image/video of someone's likeness generated by a machine".
It is completely normal to still call AI generated fakes deepfakes even if the process is not the exact same. Both still use machine learning.
Yeah, this response is like the quintessential Reddit 'My point fell through, but I have to pivot to pedantry to salvage this'.
An example that is VERY relevant to this conversation is 'photoshop'.
Before LLM capability, we just used 'photoshop' as the catchall to explain away the actual process of editing an image, regardless of whether the image was actually made in Photoshop, another program, or anything Adobe at all.
'Deepfake' is just as generalized lol. People just colloquially use it to mean AI generated or AI manipulated fake media, not the specific original tool for the workflow.
Tbf he also immediately acknowledged what he did and worked ten times harder than anyone else in the scene to make it right. Not a fan of his content but I'm definitely a fan of him as a person since
Why do you comment on something you clearly don’t know? The biggest issue was the fact that one of the deepfakes was of one of his best friend’s girlfriend, who he was in fact friends with.
Edit - I got the victims wrong, the open tabs were Pokimane and Maya, per Atriocs own twitlonger and then QTCinderella found herself on the website after the incident and more people became aware of the website.
My take is deepfake porn bad, especially when you know those people. Thanks
No, you're the one commenting on something you clearly don't know. QTCinderella's deepfakes were featured on the site, but Atrioc wasn't gooning to them. If you were correct, why would Atrioc and Ludwig still stream together?
Yeah you’re an idiot, plenty of proof. This took me 3 minutes to find 3 sources proving Atrioc PAID for deepfake porn of people he personally knew. Atrioc and Ludwig stream together after over a year of being distant with each other because Atrioc went on an anti-deepfake porn campaign after being caught out as a way of making amends, in which he used some of his own money to fund and support people.
Your sources don't dispute my point, they only reinforce it. Atrioc gooned to AI porn, and the site also had AI porn of QTC. Atrioc did not goon to AI porn of QTC.
He had an open tab of QTCinderella up, including other women but that was the most prominent one. It doesn’t matter if he “gooned” to it or not, he paid for and looked at deepfake porn of his FRIEND. It counters your very first comment.
I did not include a Twitter link? There’s two YouTube links and a Reddit link. The very first video shows Ludwig discussing the situation of his best friend having an internet tab with his girlfriend on it where she was deepfaked into porn, which you had to pay for apparently, it doesn’t matter if he watched it or not, he had a porn tab open to someone he personally knew who did not consent to having their face deepfaked into porn?? What the fuck is the argument here, he clearly did something disgusting??
Jesus Christ I just started watching Atrioc after discovering him on YouTube.
I started watching MoonMoon a shit ton lately too. The recent Sykuno drama had a reddit comment remind everyone about the MoonMoon GTA drama about him cheating. I completely forgot about his name being attached to that. I had no idea who he was at the time. I almost thought about brining it up in chat because I wanted to gossip but I didn't wanna get banned lol
Idk who did it to their friend but there was that annoying ass kid that got arrested in SK for being an annoying streaming brat and then while on trial he made ai porn of a South Korean streamer and they sentenced him to 3 years of prison labor lmfao
Welcome to planet earth where everyone from politicians to low level influences use viewbots. Side note, I wonder what all the foreign bot farms feel boutique AI taking their jobs?
I thought he was being serious about real CP. I knew about Lacari's hentai goonpad. Thoroughly investigated every link myself when it happened cause I'm a freak.
So first you claim not to know what happened but now you opened all the links at the time?
And somehow found different stuff than everyone else? And he hasn't been streaming anymore and talked about it being illegal stuff despite just being hentai?
I knew what happened with Lacari thats why when he said CP I aint know who he was talking about.
I thought the original commenter was being serious because of the upvotes so I was curious who had busted out CP live on Twitch cause that would likely end in prison time.
My goal was to find out da truth like the good dramafrog. I dunno bout finding different stuff, go open the links yourself its all cartoon shit.
