DeepFakes Aren't Fake. Here's Why.

More and more AI-generated nudes, or “deepfakes,” are appearing in schools. That’s because young people are regularly being served ads about apps that “undress” their classmates. While some may call these images “fake,” the harm they cause to a person’s privacy, dignity, and bodily autonomy is very real. In this video, a student generates an AI nude of his classmate, and talks to his friend about the consequences. He learns the truth about “deepfakes” and how these AI tools are being used to create harmful, non-consensual content. Whether it’s a “joke” or something more serious, AI-generated imagery can have real-world consequences for mental health and reputations. [AMZ-187]

Porn Is Not Sex Ed

This video acknowledges how common it is for young people to stumble upon pornography or to seek it out because they are curious about sex. While young people’s curiosity is completely normal, this video makes it clear that pornography is not a good source of accurate information about sex. Pornography often features white actors with dramatically enhanced bodies, but in real life bodies come in a range of shapes, sizes, colors and abilities. Pornography also uses special effects, like those you might see in a superhero film, to have things happen that could never happen in real. Pornography can also feature sexual behaviors with no mention or use of safer sex or contraceptive methods. Pornography can also show people with vulvas having multiple orgasms over and over again, but this does not happen in real life. Scenarios in pornography also often include people engaging in sexual behaviors who have just met and don’t know one another. Most people find that sex feels better when they are in an intimate and caring relationship with a partner. [AMZ-116]
