The link you provided is an example of somebody making a "catfish" account on a "social media site". It's not an example of somebody "setting up fake personas/OnlyFans accounts using chatbots and SD images". Yes, men have been pretending to be women online since the stone age, that isn't news. That's different from using chatbots and SD images to maintain online personas.

Look, if you want professional reporting, wait a year or two and you can hear about it from mainstream media.

You're being weirdly defensive about this-- you've even gone full FAKE NEWS on me in a sibling comment. I admit I am completely unqualified to recognize what it looks like when a clueless Boomer is talking to an Oobabooga+sd_picture_api instance over WhatsApp. This is my first day on the job.

No "proof" coming from me is ever going to satiate you (I'm not a credible source), so I'll pass. Just go on believing that there are women out there who will send you endless nudes of themselves having superimposed nipples stacked on top of each other but get bashful about showing hands or feet (just say the magic words: "show me ___"). Believe that there are 18-year old e-thots out there whose underbaked features look exactly like the product of 15- to 20-step DDIM. Believe that they also have a developmental disorder that makes them say gibberish or change the subject when you reference anything to do with the current time. Believe that any of these women are real and actually interested in your two-timing ass. You'll get your "proof" the fun way.

Huh? Sibling comment responded with a link to a story. I never questioned the legitimacy of the linked story. I questioned the relevancy of the story, fully assuming that the story is true. Then I even walked back my earlier comment and I wrote a new comment giving more credit to the posted story. Not sure how you read through these and hear "FAKE NEWS" in all caps.

If I went "FAKE NEWS" on something, it was your comment claiming "People are already setting up fake personas/OnlyFans accounts using chatbots and SD images". That's a thing that could theoretically happen in the future. It's not a thing that's happening at this time.
