Taylor Swift is reportedly furious about the graphic AI images circulating on Twitter
It’s been a strange few weeks for Taylor Swift. In many ways, this is her best era – she’s in love with a football player, she’s rich and successful, her tour and her albums are making billions of dollars, she spends time with her many friends and her three cats are happy and healthy. And yet outside forces are doing the most to hurt her or make her feel unsafe. There’s the sh-t with her stalker, who has been arrested three times in five days outside of Taylor’s home – he keeps being released from custody and he just heads right back to Taylor’s apartment building. It’s insane that the NYPD can’t do more. Then, something else happened this week – someone created very graphic AI images of Taylor and they were posted all over social media. Taylor’s fans activated and they’ve been systematically getting the photos removed. Taylor is reportedly really upset about it.
Taylor Swift is reportedly “furious” over the AI-generated photos of her circulating social media. In fact, the “Cruel Summer” singer is considering taking legal action after the graphic images from NSFW websites went viral this week, according to a source.
“Whether or not legal action will be taken is being decided, but there is one thing that is clear: These fake, AI-generated images are abusive, offensive, exploitative and done without Taylor’s consent and/or knowledge,” the insider told the Daily Mail Thursday.
“The Twitter account that posted them does not exist anymore. It is shocking that the social media platform even let them be up to begin with,” the source added. The report said Swift’s family and friends are also “furious.”
“Legislation needs to be passed to prevent this, and laws must be enacted,” the insider argued.
Although Swift, 34, has not publicly commented on the scandal, her legion of loyal fans were quick to flood X, formerly known as Twitter, with positive posts about her in an attempt to combat the spreading of inappropriate images. The posts, known as “deepfakes,” showed the “Love Story” singer in a variety of provocative and offensive poses at a Kansas City Chiefs game, which her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, plays for.
I saw one of the images on Twitter and I was disgusted on Taylor’s behalf. Those AI images are so exploitative and they should be considered “revenge p0rn.” I genuinely hope that Taylor being targeted with this sh-t leads to some movement on a legislative level. I keep thinking about Taylor’s Time POTY interview, where she talked about how she didn’t want to hide away anymore, she wanted to live her life and not worry about stepping outside or going to dinner with friends. And then as soon as she’s in a space where she’s really feeling herself and everything is going great for her, she’s got stalkers and these disgusting AI images. It f–king sucks.
