Even with the technology of deepfake and a woke society, the internet still hasn’t learned to respect a woman. The recent trending bar of X (formerly Twitter) is filled with a hashtag that proves the morality level of the internet is lower than Taylor Swift’s voice in Coney Island.
The trending topic on the internet currently is the phrase “Taylor Swift AI” which was filled with AI-generated deepfake explicit images of global pop star.

Swifties Rally Against Deepfake Controversy
Taylor has been under the wrong kind of light before, especially one that shows her face attached to a body that is not hers. Keeping in mind the 2016 incident where Kanye West put a naked wax figure of Taylor Swift beside him in his ‘Famous’ MV. It’s the same song in which he calls Taylor “That B*tch”. Swifties remember how the ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ singer felt after that humiliating depiction of her.
While one part of the internet shared these images sporting a good laugh another came to ‘The Man’ singer’s defence. The protective fandom of ‘Lover’ songstress known as Swifties once again proved that they care for Taylor’s safety first and foremost.

Many fans questioned the lack of regulations surrounding such non-consensual use of the artist’s likeness.
“How is this not considered sexual assault??” one X user questioned. “We are talking about the body/face of a woman being used for something she probably would never allow/feel comfortable – how are there no regulations laws preventing this.”
Another user expressed disbelief, stating, “When I saw the AI pictures, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Those AI pictures are disgusting.”
Outraged fans deemed the act “disgusting” and emphasized how instances like these could potentially tarnish the reputation of AI technology.
“Whosoever released them deserves punishment,” chimed in yet another Swiftie.
