Understanding the Difference Between Generic AI-Generated Explicit Content and Deep Fake Pornography
Since the democratization of AI started, the online availability of different AI-systems and AI models has revolutionized the creation of any type of digital content, including explicit imagery. However, it’s important to differentiate between generic AI-generated explicit content and deepfakes in the context of (semi)nudity, soft-pornography and hard-pornography. Both raise important questions regarding freedom of expression, purpose, legality, and intent and the role of ‘the 3 digital gatekeepers of global morality’: ‘OpenAI, Google and Microsoft.

What is Generic AI-Generated Explicit Content?
Generic AI-generated explicit content includes images or videos created by AI without replicating the likeness of real individuals. This category is further divided into:
- Nude Photography: AI-generated depictions of nudity, often artistic or aesthetic in nature.
- Soft Pornography: Suggestive or sensual imagery, designed for entertainment or artistic purposes.
- Hard Pornography: Explicit depictions of sexual acts, created purely through AI.
Since no real individuals are impersonated, these forms of content typically do not fall under the umbrella of “deep fakes.” Instead, they should be seen as creative outputs or adult content produced by AI systems. However they are ‘banned content’ and blocked by intransparanet nsfw prompt filtering using proprietary ‘banned words lists’ with ‘banned words‘ by large US-based tech companies. Positioning themselves as The 3 digital gatekeepers of global morality’.
What Are Deep Fakes in Explicit Contexts?
Deep fakes, on the other hand, involve the manipulation of AI to replicate or replace a real person’s likeness—such as their face or body—onto explicit images or videos. These can include:
- Deep Fake Nude Photography: AI-generated images placing a real person’s likeness in (semi)nude scenarios.
- Deep Fake Soft Pornography: Sensual content using a real individual’s features with or without their consent.
- Deep Fake Hard Pornography: Explicit sexual content using a real person’s likeness with or without their consent.
The intent behind creating deep fakes often includes harmful trickery, deception, exploitation, or harm, which raises significant ethical and legal concerns. But it can also be with someones consent
Key Differences
- Use of Real Person’s Likeness:
- Generic AI-generated explicit content does not involve real individuals.
- Deep fakes impersonate real people, often without their consent.
- Intent and Purpose:
- Generic AI-generated explicit content is typically created for entertainment, commercial, or artistic purposes.
- Deep fakes can be intended to deceive, harm, or exploit individuals.
- Ethical and Legal Implications:
- Generic AI-generated explicit content avoids impersonation, is less controversial but is still subject to cultural bias both by suppliers and by customers if used for digital marketing for instance.
- Deep fakes generated and distributed without consent can violate privacy and dignity, making them subject to stricter scrutiny and potential legal action.

Why This Distinction Matters
Understanding these differences is crucial both for both tech companies, for suppliers, of different generative AI models as for customers. For people that want to generate and use for instance (semi) nude photos for personal, for public including artistic use in addressing ethical concerns protecting individuals from exploitation and navigating legal frameworks. But also for people that want to avoid cultural bias and the limitation of the freedom of expression, freedom of creativity and productivity gains imposed by the large tech companies OpenAI, Google & Microsoft.

Generic AI generated explicit content generated with one of the many alternative different AI-systems and LLMs online supports freedom of expression and creative freedom just like traditional (semi) nude art (semi) nude photography, soft pornography and hard pornography. Certain types of AI-generated deep fake nude photography, deep fake soft pornography or deep fake hard pornography can pose serious threats to privacy and can cause irreparable harm to individuals involved if they are generated without their consent.
Important Considerations
- Cultural Bias: What is considered acceptable, ‘provocative’ or ‘adult content’ varies between people of different cultures and countries. For instance between people living in the U.S, in the European Union, in an EU member state like The Netherlands, in Saudi Arabia & the Golf States.
- Legislation: The legal status and restrictions regarding the definition of different of adult content or ‘explicit content’ categories differ significantly per individual country and even different states in the U.S. and in the EU like for instance The Netherlands.
- Personal Use or Public Use: OpenAI, Google AI and Microsoft AI do not make a difference between Personal Use or Public use of Generic AI-generated explicit content and AI-generated They have decided to ban every type of Generic AI-generated explicit content in their AI-models using restrictive NSFW prompt filtering.
With a smartphone or a professional camera, everybody can produce and share any type of explicit content whenever they want. Either publicly or with their own friends or even partner. Why is that not the case with Generic AI-generated explicit content?
I personally only use generic AI-generated explicit content, being (semi) nude art & (semi) nude photography I have generated myself. Using online AI-systems and LLMs from companies that are not incorporated in the US or Canda. But that are often incorporated in the UK, in the EU including in The Netherlands or in off-shore locations like Cyprus. And that do not impose automated restrictive nsfw-prompt filtering on me.
