OnlyFans Creators Are Pissed That Meta Lets Muse Talk Dirty

The generative AI revolution hasn’t been kind to Vanniall, an OnlyFans creator who lives in New York City. She now constantly finds hyperrealistic deepfakes—AI-generated images and videos that copy everything about her—circulating online and often isn’t able to get them removed.

生成式人工智能革命对居住在纽约市的 OnlyFans 创作者 Vanniall 并不友好。她现在经常发现网上流传着超逼真的深度伪造内容——即复制她一切特征的 AI 生成图像和视频——而且往往无法将其删除。

On top of that, Vanniall struggles to build an audience on popular social media platforms, like Instagram, without getting in trouble. “There’s always some sort of report or appeal that I’m going through with them,” she tells WIRED. Vanniall’s Instagram account, which has over 100,000 followers, is currently restricted and cannot be viewed without logging in.

除此之外，Vanniall 在 Instagram 等主流社交媒体平台上建立受众群体时，总是会遇到麻烦。“我总是在处理各种举报或申诉，”她告诉《连线》杂志。Vanniall 拥有超过 10 万粉丝的 Instagram 账号目前受到限制，不登录便无法查看。

So, when I tell her that Meta allows its AI agent, called Muse, to engage in explicit sexting with adult users, she seems frustrated by the decision: “It’s not fair that they get to pull money out of people with their sexually active AI agent, but they won’t let real people, real adults, engage in any sort of sensuality or sexuality.”

因此，当我告诉她 Meta 允许其名为 Muse 的 AI 代理与成年用户进行露骨的色情短信聊天时，她对这一决定感到沮丧：“他们利用具有性功能的 AI 代理从人们身上赚钱，却不允许真实的人、真实的成年人进行任何形式的感官或性表达，这太不公平了。”

It’s a common refrain I heard from other adult content creators, who questioned why their accounts on Meta platforms often seem restricted, while Meta’s AI agent is now allowed to talk dirty with millions of adult users.

这是我从其他成人内容创作者那里听到的共同心声，他们质疑为什么自己在 Meta 平台上的账号经常受到限制，而 Meta 的 AI 代理现在却被允许与数百万成年用户进行色情对话。

“A private, one-to-one conversation between an adult and an individualized AI agent on a platform restricted to people 18 and over is very different from the marketing and promotion of services on a social media platform,” Meta spokesperson Tracy Clayton tells WIRED.

Meta 发言人 Tracy Clayton 对《连线》杂志表示：“在一个仅限 18 岁及以上人群使用的平台上，成年人与个性化 AI 代理之间的一对一私密对话，与在社交媒体平台上进行服务营销和推广有着本质区别。”

Meta’s Muse is the first always-on AI agent to break out of early adopter circles in San Francisco. The Muse app is like a message thread; text the digital assistant, give it access to your personal data, like calendar and email, and have it proactively find ways to help, like canceling a workout class that overlaps with your dinner reservation. Meta’s large distribution network, through platforms like Instagram and Facebook, helped catapult the app to the top of the download charts during its first month, as millions of new users experimented with an agent for the first time.

Meta 的 Muse 是首个走出旧金山早期采用者圈子的全天候 AI 代理。Muse 应用就像一个消息线程；给数字助理发短信，授予其访问个人数据（如日历和电子邮件）的权限，它就能主动寻找提供帮助的方法，例如取消与晚餐预订冲突的健身课程。Meta 通过 Instagram 和 Facebook 等平台建立的庞大分发网络，帮助该应用在首月就跃居下载排行榜榜首，数百万新用户首次尝试了这种代理。

In addition to having it organize your calendar, Meta says, it’s OK for users of the adults-only app to engage in X-rated AI conversations with Muse. A Meta spokesperson previously told WIRED the company wouldn’t “block legal adult behavior.” Meta’s Muse generates explicit text but not images or videos.

Meta 表示，除了整理日历外，该成人应用的用户也可以与 Muse 进行色情 AI 对话。一位 Meta 发言人此前告诉《连线》杂志，公司不会“阻止合法的成人行为”。Meta 的 Muse 可以生成露骨的文字，但不能生成图像或视频。

While Meta takes a different approach to moderation on Instagram, other social media platforms in the United States do allow sexually explicit content. X remains one of the most popular platforms for many OnlyFans creators to draw in new subscribers and connect with fans. Many adult performers have also migrated to Bluesky after Elon Musk took over the platform formerly known as Twitter, where users can also share adult content.

虽然 Meta 在 Instagram 上采取了不同的审核方式，但美国其他社交媒体平台确实允许发布色情内容。X 仍然是许多 OnlyFans 创作者吸引新订阅者并与粉丝建立联系的最受欢迎平台之一。在埃隆·马斯克接管前身为 Twitter 的平台后，许多成人表演者也迁移到了 Bluesky，用户在那里也可以分享成人内容。

“I think we’re already seeing AI being allowed to do more than humans would get away with,” says Jiz Lee, who runs an OnlyFans account and has worked for years behind the scenes in queer porn. Meta has previously flagged Lee’s Instagram posts for removal. Lee feels like queer and trans people are often treated unfairly by large social media companies, whether or not the person is an adult content creator.

“我认为我们已经看到 AI 被允许做的事情比人类能做到的更多，”经营着一个 OnlyFans 账号、并在酷儿色情行业幕后工作多年的 Jiz Lee 说道。Meta 此前曾标记并删除了 Lee 的 Instagram 帖子。Lee 认为，无论是否为成人内容创作者，酷儿和跨性别群体经常受到大型社交媒体公司的不公平对待。

Lee traces many online censorship issues back to FOSTA-SESTA, a law signed by President Trump in 2018 that impacted Section 230 protections for platforms, and many websites responded by censoring adult content. “If sex work was decriminalized, then a lot of these issues wouldn’t be happening, a lot of the censorship wouldn’t be happening,” they say.

Lee 将许多在线审查问题追溯到 2018 年特朗普总统签署的 FOSTA-SESTA 法案，该法案影响了平台在第 230 条下的保护，许多网站因此开始审查成人内容。“如果性工作能去罪化，那么许多这类问题就不会发生，许多审查也就不会存在了，”他们说。

Lee also wants to know more about how Muse was trained and who, if anyone, was compensated by Meta for their data. “We’ve been slow to react industry-wise,” they say. But Lee is starting to see more adult content companies clarify AI usage stances in official contracts. They want to protect performers from being gobbled up into AI training data.

Lee 还想了解更多关于 Muse 如何训练的信息，以及是否有任何人因其数据而获得 Meta 的补偿。“我们在行业层面的反应一直很迟缓，”他们说。但 Lee 开始看到更多的成人内容公司在正式合同中明确了 AI 使用立场。他们希望保护表演者，防止其被吞噬进 AI 训练数据中。

“When we’re at award shows, and companies do advertisements for AI agents, they literally get booed like crazy,” says Tony Genius, who also has an OnlyFans account and appears in adult films. He has concerns about fully AI-generated porn in the future potentially displacing human performers. He also sees current AI tools as helpful for some marketing tasks independent creators do, like using automations to clip video segments for social media.

“当我们参加颁奖典礼时，如果公司为 AI 代理做广告，他们真的会被嘘得很惨，”同样拥有 OnlyFans 账号并出演成人电影的 Tony Genius 说。他担心未来完全由 AI 生成的色情内容可能会取代人类表演者。他也认为目前的 AI 工具对独立创作者的一些营销任务很有帮助，例如使用自动化工具为社交媒体剪辑视频片段。

For many OnlyFans creators, navigating Meta platforms is frustrating but critical to remaining visible online. Genius claims to be on his seventh Instagram account in the past five years.

对于许多 OnlyFans 创作者来说，在 Meta 平台上运营虽然令人沮丧，但对于保持在线曝光度至关重要。Genius 声称他在过去五年里已经换了七个 Instagram 账号。

When asked about Muse’s sexting ability, he questioned why Meta made one of its apps, Muse, gated for those 18 and over but doesn’t seem interested in creating another adults-only space on social media. “It could be: Instacam,” he says.

当被问及 Muse 的色情短信功能时，他质疑为什么 Meta 将其应用之一 Muse 设置为 18 岁以上才能使用，却似乎对在社交媒体上创建另一个成人专用空间不感兴趣。“它可以叫：Instacam，”他说。

Muse generating adult content could offer explicit AI interactions to a wider audience. Genius says he would be open to collaborating with a tech company to create an AI-version of himself that fans could message. He wants to find ways for humans to keep making money as adult performers, ensuring they aren’t cut out or unfairly trained on. Right now, he sees his human-ness and authenticity as central to connecting with audiences.

Muse 生成成人内容可以为更广泛的受众提供露骨的 AI 互动。Genius 表示，他愿意与科技公司合作，创建一个粉丝可以发消息的 AI 版自己。他希望找到让作为成人表演者的人类继续赚钱的方法，确保他们不会被淘汰或被不公平地用于训练。目前，他认为自己的人性和真实性是与受众建立联系的核心。

Meanwhile, Vanniall is fervently against using any AI agent. Well, at least, Meta’s Muse. “Stop downloading that app,” she says. “You do not need to give Meta any more money or any more of your personal information. They have enough.”

与此同时，Vanniall 强烈反对使用任何 AI 代理。至少，是 Meta 的 Muse。“别再下载那个应用了，”她说。“你不需要再给 Meta 钱或更多的个人信息了。他们已经拿得够多了。”
