If you’re rubbing your hands thinking about the coming wave of pornographic images of Tifa, Cammy, or Diva, we’ve got some bad news for you. Although Rule 3 has been supplemented with this exception, there are other rules that restrict the posting of sexually explicit material.

On the one hand, Rule 6 states that communities must properly label content, especially content that is graphic, sexually explicit, or offensive. For another, Rule 4 prohibits sexual or obscene content in which they participate. minors, even if they were created by themselves.

Deepfakes will still be banned on Reddit

While the new exception allows AI-generated porn, deepfakes will remain banned on the platform. Rule 3 Reddit mentions in one of its paragraphs that “any image or video posted for the specific purpose of spoofing explicit content or soliciting fake pornography (like deepfakes or bubble porn) is also against the rules.”

If we remember, celebrity porn became popular in 2018 when a user uploaded several videos on Reddit in which actresses such as Gal Gadot, Maisie Williams or Taylor Swift had sex. Its creator, known as “deepfakes”, has developed an algorithm for replacing celebrity faces using a computer.

Content became so popular that a subreddit was created r/deepfakes, where more than 15,000 users shared photos and videos of fake pornography created by artificial intelligence. However, the joy was short-lived as Reddit updated the rules and banned deepfakeswhich led to the death of this community.

With the passage of time and the explosion of apps like Midjourney or Stable Diffusion, some are wondering if AI-generated porn will return to Reddit. While there are still some hurdles, we may see a resurgence. The truth is that popular apps cannot create NSFW content, so users will have to rely on alternatives like Unstable Diffusion, SoulGen.AI, or Neural.Love.
