Will real porn actors be replaced by AI models in the future? Since artificial intelligence programs are getting more and more realistic results, many stars in the adult industry fear for their jobs. But to what extent are the fears justified? How will AI sex actually affect the porn space? And how will the industry continue to change in the future due to sex robots, AI sex dolls, intelligent erotic chatbots and AI porn generators?
AI porn generators and artificial nudes
At least since ChatGPT, AI has also come into the mainstream. But the chatbot is far from the only program using AI. The porn industry in particular knows countless apps that can be used to create artificial women and men with just a few button presses and commands.
So-called AI porn generators are able to generate erotic stars within minutes that correspond 100% to the user's individual ideas. There are two types of programs: face swapping tools that simply create an artificial face and place it on a porn actor's body, and apps that generate full AI nudes.
In both cases, the user uses tag to specify the exact external features of the AI porn star – with face swap tools, of course, only the facial ones such as labia fullness or butt size. eyes. With the second type of programs, breast size or figure can also be designed according to personal ideas.
Knowledge Face-Swap-Tools are for example Deepswap.ai, deepnude.cc or Reface Porn. PornJourney is a popular AI porn generator that can be used to create a complete AI nude. A program that exclusively generates female AI nudes is for example pornpen.ai.
There are even now Twitter profiles where users can post their AI-generated porn models. Popular accounts are girls made et TheRRRealist.

Are AI erotic models a danger for real pornstars?
The more AI technology advances and the more modern porn generators become, the more real erotic stars will certainly become useless – right?
If you ask the models who are active in the industry, there are considerable doubts about such a development. Laura Lux, Australian star of OnlyFans, wrote at the end of January 2023 Twitter“Anyone who thinks AI-generated images of hot naked women are ruining the economy ofOnlyFans for women in the real world has a fundamental misunderstanding of what is OnlyFans."
"People don't follow me on OnlyFans because they want to see any naked woman. They subscribe because they specifically want to see ME naked based on an over-social connection created by following me on other social media platforms,” she continues.
AI models could therefore never achieve the same status as real pornstars. Especially since the creators ofOnlyFans are already using AI apps to pimp their own looks on nudes. Alex Sim-Wise, also star of Only Fans, told the British newspaper The independent: “There is a whole sub-category of creators who change their identity. I think the creators ofOnlyFans are already using this type of technology sometimes without really knowing that they are doing it with all the many applications. »
According to this, the AI technology would only support erotic models in their work, but would not completely replace them.

AI sex robots and lifelike sex dolls
However, online pornography is not the only area of the adult industry that could be and already is influenced by artificial intelligence. We are talking about sex dolls and sex robots that are becoming more and more realistic and promise erotic experiences like with real people.
One of the most famous manufacturers of AI sex robots is Abyss Creations, with its AI Realdolls triggered a real boom in the market. AI sex dolls are not only barely distinguishable from real women, they can also be individualized by changing the face according to personal preference.
With the help of the "RealDollX" app, you can even freely configure the personality of the sex robot. Moreover, the artificial intelligence of each of the sex dolls mentioned is linked to machine learning. This leads to constant development and adaptation to the user, for example remembering name and preferences during sex.
AI chatbots for hot sexting
Siri and Alexa are probably the best known language assistants. But the adult industry has already produced AI assistants that can be used for sex chat and sexting.
Illustration studio Lightfarm recently shared avatar images of AI Samantha on Twitter that they allegedly developed with a Samsung-affiliated marketing agency. Immediately, many wondered if it could be a new virtual assistant from Samsung. However, this was never confirmed by the tech giant. The photos have since been deleted.
Another AI chatbot that can also be used for romantic and erotic chats and even has its own Twitter profile is ReplikaAI.
AI erotic toys promise real sex
In addition to chatbots that work with the help of artificial intelligence, sex toys are also equipped with AI technology. It is intended to give users an even more authentic experience, almost like having sex with a real person.
Arguably one of the most famous AI sex toys is Auto Blow AI, a masturbator for men. The device uses machine learning and has a database of over 109 hours of blowjob material in porn videos so it can best mimic a user-tailored oral sex experience through the algorithm. constantly evolving.
What are the ethical concerns?
Undoubtedly, most advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence, bring many benefits. Nevertheless, certain risks often cannot be ruled out outright – this is also the case with AI.
Ethical concerns regarding AI in the pornographic field in particular are currently not sufficiently discussed. There are already examples of how some people – mostly women – have unwittingly become pornstars thanks to this new technology.
About Wrong wrong have become the faces of ordinary women on those of professionals porn actors assembled. Celebrities in particular have recently fallen victim to this treacherous scam, which is only possible through AI software. Because this way anyone can have sex with the woman of their dreams, their favorite singer or their idol without that person knowing about it. When such content becomes public, it becomes particularly problematic.
So it turns out that there are downsides to AI too, and the technology can also be used for illegal practices.
