The resulting fakes could be used to shame, harass, and intimidate their targets. The DeepNude app creates AI fakes at the click of a button. A new AI-powered software tool makes it easy for anyone to generate realistic nude images of women simply by feeding the program a picture of the intended target wearing clothes.
