But are there apps that undress men?

Aren't those just normal chat apps where you can send pictures?

[–] [email protected] 28 points 9 months ago

No you just politely ask them

The models they're using are probably capable of both, they just need to change the prompt.

They would need to be trained to do that first.

Same, I couldn't find any other sources for the image I needed tho

I don't think any of the models they're using are trained from scratch. It would be much cheaper to take something like Stable Diffusion and finetune it or use one of the hundreds of premade porn finetunes that already exist.

Yeah, training a FM from scratch is stupid expensive. You're talking about a team of data scientists each pulling at least 6 figures.

Only one way to find out

Pretty sure straight-men are the most likely ones to use apps like this.
