[Official Updates] Follow-up plans for the project about animateanyone

[fjdhgkkg]

Can't wait to use this for porn

[mrshmllow]

I have reported this repository for enabling harm and sexual harassment and hopefully GitHub will take action against you as well. Beyond benefiting exclusively corporations, this technology's only use will be for revenge porn, blackmail, identity theft and CSEM and should NEVER be made open source

[woct0rdho]

Thanks but don't aim for perfect from the beginning. An academic prototype is great for a lot of us, and we're willing to help you polish it into a product

[continue-revolution]

I will almost certainly support it as soon as possible in my A1111 extension https://github.com/continue-revolution/sd-webui-animatediff/ since in the paper it mentioned that it used AnimateDiff, if the release date is after 12/6/2023 when I'm done with my university stuff.

[mrshmllow]

Please consider deleting your accounts and withdrawing from the tech industry. this is beyond disgusting. there's no legitimate reason for this technology to exist

[mrshmllow]

possibly for good use cases like v-tubers, reanimating old relatives who have recently died, video games and so much more, yet you choose to think only about the worst.

Possibly for good use cases? POSSIBLY? These cost cutting measures do not nearly justify the harm it will cause.

Should you really be defending CSEM Machine 2.0 while on the clock?

[jdagdelen]

Perfect is the enemy of good. Releasing research code doesn't preclude you from improving it and making a user-friendly version. It would greatly benefit the research community for you to release what you have and at least let us verify your results and explore ourselves!

We're not scared or judgemental of messy research code. We write it ourselves! :)

[mrshmllow]

The pre existence of something harmful does not morally justify the creation of something that does the same thing.

Hi there,
No.

Thanks

Randy, Reacting to yourself with a thumbs up emoji is honestly quite embarrassing. I have reported this repository for enabling harm and sexual harassment and hopefully GitHub will take action against you as well. This technology's only use will be for revenge porn, blackmail, identity theft and CSEM.

Hi there.
Please look at tools such as Deepfacelab. They are used to generate artificial deepfakes of people, as well as porn. Even though that's not their original intend, nor is it the repo's purpose. Yet the repo has been up for years.

The purpose of this repo is to believably animate people or characters from a single image, possibly for good use cases like v-tubers, reanimating old relatives who have recently died, video games and so much more, yet you choose to think only about the worst.

I'm sorry, but this repo will probably not be deleted, as its purpose is to reanimate people from a single image.

Thanks,
Randy, participant of this thread.

Ps. Please just leave me alone. I wanna get back to work.

[FurkanGozukara]

Well I finally made full automated installers for magic-research/magic-animate

I am assuming your model will be like theirs :)

magic-research/magic-animate#44

[Randy-H0]

Thank you so much. This is really exciting. Don't pressure yourselves and do what's right

[MacroChip]

So you have a separate, private repo? Can we get read only access to that? I don't really understand. Congrats on the good work!

mrshmllow You can stop trolling now. Your first post was perfect, now you just sound like a douchebag.

@dajes

The more fake revenge porn there are the less people are going to take it seriously

That's a very naive and dangerously stupid reasoning.

1. Sex is very intimate. Maybe you like having your intimacy displayed publicly, but that's not the case for most people. Even having a fake porn of yourself is humiliating.
2. Whether you like it or not, revenge porn will have an impact on your life. Let's take the case of a happily married couple. Someone can easily break their inner trust by creating fake evidence of the husband cheating, then showing it to the wife.
3. People will judge you, and among those judging you, there will be some discriminating against you as soon as they can. Let's take a typical case: someone makes a gay porn of you, then your boss decides to fire you because he doesn't like homosexuals. Boom, you lost your job because of deepfakes.

Revenge porn will always have a negative impact, because there will never be a time when absolutely no one takes it seriously. And in before you come on and say "ok but in the case of fakes, none of that matters!" : No, all of it DOES matter. All of that will happen regardless of whether it's real or not. All it takes is for people to believe it. Even proving it's fake afterwards won't help.

[LintonAchmad]

let's go!

Nor does the harm of what tacotron2 can do, what Elevenlabs zero shot voice cloning can do, nor what image synthesis can do, etc. there's a million examples. If you only think about the bad, you don't think. This doesn't even do face tracking from what I have seen, it cannot be more harmful than something like SadTalker. If you have actual good arguments/complaints. Respond. If not, leave me alone.

@mrshmllow why is fake revenge porn a bad thing? The more fake revenge porn there are the less people are going to take it seriously. In the limit, revenge porn will stop being an instrument of influence at all and that is a big W. The same probably goes for blackmail if I understand it correctly. Identity theft and CSEM are already much easier with other approaches so this tool doesn't change anything in this regard

[ReEnMikki]

It seems like a common occurence that a lot of folks interested in this repo enabled notifications for everything news, got flooded with notifications from normies/ trolls turning Github issues into a warzone or shitshow, then decided to turn it off again.

[KingProcrastinator]

Clay animation got a whole lot easier.

[jeffywilburn]

Great project, keep it up guys, lets make future of ai.

魔法动画（代码和权重）：https://github.com/magic-research/magic-animate

great, I can't wait to try a model of the same type.

[mrshmllow]

Sorry I did go a bit too Redditor on them

[Asianfleet]

Really amazing work！I understand your concern about the quality of the code to be released.But how about release it earlier to get the open source community working on it? Even if there are some problems with the code you publish, we will accept and understand it!

[Kevyunsun]

This is awesome ❤️

[prabal-rawal]

Noice

[almmaasoglu]

Thank you!

[Koningsbruggen]

looks amazing

[oneil512]

Excited for this!

[Xodarap]

Thanks for the update! Is there somewhere we can sign up to be notified when you release the source code?

[152334H]

god yes please

[FSSRepo]

Waiting for some update

[lucasjinreal]

Waiting for it

[shiyueGG]

About what time

[raphaeljoaguarany]

awesome work !! 🚀

[Akki-0]

Thank you very much!

[AllenEdgarPoe]

This is Great, and plausible when using AnimateDiff. Wonderful Work!

[prasadpilla]

Excited for the release!

[mixjay332]

mind-blowing!!

[sxsx-G]

Great project！

[rookasrudzianskas]

Such a cool project! Excited for the first release! Respect for all of you 🚀

[sombochea]

Great 👍, thanks.

[AugustDev]

Id like to help building frontend UI for this.

[youtube-jocoding]

Thank you!

[LuluViBritannia]

You might want to be aware that a lot of guys stole your presentation video on Youtube. Typing Animate Anyone right now, you are overshadowed by a lot of fakes... some of them have spam links in their description.

Anyway, we all love your work already! If it truly works as intended, a lot of people will fulfill their dreams of making their own 2D animations. And of course, this will change the industries forever!

[EKI-INDRADI]

awesome, i think such as stable diffusion controlnet batch but this is version very stable. . . OMG

[alynylcnz]

[trottiemcqueen]

I would like to help with the frontend as well and maybe even learn about the backend if possible.

"Waaahhh... Open source technological development for people bad! Closed source, strictly censored, monopolized, heavily biased towards wokeness/ political-correctness, monetized subscription-based-model at cutthroating price AI technology by big corporations good!"

It's almost as if evil people will always try to use everything for malicious purposes, or that if it's not those people pushing forward the boundaries of AI technology, someone else inevitably will or something.

Oh right, right, the big corporations, those that spew all the sweet-honey words of promises to "regulate" AI technology for "social safety & well-being", will totally not exploit their exclusive ownership to certain technology breakthroughs to maximize the crap out of the profits they can earn from it.

Damn, curse you all the people who invented internet, you allowed the pedos to spread CPs! You people are to blame for this! The internet, thus, should've never existed at all!... Or maybe we need an ultimate centralized entity that holds absolute power over the entire worldwide internet to make sure no such things ever appear on it!

[gorkemdolcek]

Thx!!

[LuluViBritannia]

No problem buddy ^^. At least it entertains us while we wait for the code release!

All it takes is for people to believe it. Even proving it's fake afterwards won't help.

1. It's a you issue if fake porn humiliates you
2. You are better off without a relationship where the partner doesn't understand what deep fake is (and can't recognize it when it's that bad)
3. You are better off not working for a boss who is both homophobic and obscurant of deep fakes at the same time (even one of these is pretty bad already)

You do not understand my point, and that's why you think it's stupid. The real implication in this case is of the opposite direction. As soon as convincing deep fakes become common no one will believe porn of a person is real even if it is

[LuluViBritannia]

@dajes Lol. Are you serious? Ok, so how about you dox yourself right now, then we create fake porns of you, distribute it to your job, friends and family, and see if it doesn't have any impact on you? Then you can come back and I'll tell you "it'S A YoU pRoBlem".

Just because YOU don't see any issue with losing a job, a relationship or your dignity, doesn't mean that it's not objectively a problem.

Does the name "Amanda Todd" ring a bell to you? Poor girl got pushed into flashing during a live video, some scumbag took a video capture of it and showed it to everyone who knows her, she ended up killing herself due to the backlash.

Now take into account that with deepfakes, anyone can fabricate the same situation towards anybody else. Still not seeing any problem?

"no one will believe porn of a person is real even if it is" LMAO. Please, for the love of intelligence: THINK.

[dajes]

@LuluViBritannia I see. You are beyond help

[LuluViBritannia]

@dajes Says the dumbass who is all for revenge porn becoming mainstream. Why did you ignore my points? Because you have nothing to argue.

[dajes]

@LuluViBritannia because you are beyond help. Talking about losing some dignity while not having one. Promoting obscurantism because of potential misuse. But for some reason still using computers which have been used to lead the poor girl to suicide. Typical hypocrite prone to panicking for no reason and calling everyone who is not so emotionally unstable stupid

[dimitri-vs]

Can you guys take your soapboxing somewhere more appropriate like YouTube comments section or on Twitter? Some of us have been trying to monitor this issue for actual release updates.

But honestly it's too late, I'm unsubbing for this issue since it's such a shit show and recommending @HumanAIGC to just close it.

[Randy-H0]

magic-research/magic-animate#44

Good job bud, I appreciate your effort and stuff with the things you're doing. Too bad this thread is now a war place. I do support the evolution of AI. Although i don't understand what this porn thing is about. You'd need a naked image of someone to even start doing that and even then, idk how well this would handle it. But ey, thanks for your contribution!

[agi-dude]

Please stay on topic! 👍

If you want to continue talking, please move this discussion to another issue.

You guys are awesome..... SORA from openai looks piece of Sh** infront of your model.. Love you guys for your open source contribution. Looking forward to the code.
