LLMs give people with delusional belief systems a way to organise those beliefs. The model fills in gaps, supplies connective tissue, and wraps the madness in formal language.
It doesn't make the claims more credible to us, it just tidies them up.

This is of course something that @samleecole.bsky.social has been writing about literally since the dawn of deepfakes. But the scale of this exposure is really crazy. Millions of images leaked by extraordinarily shoddy security, left exposed on the internet for months

It's sort of hard to explain how incredibly fucked up this is. Nudify apps are terrible, and a scourge that is being used against random nonpublic people (and bad no matter who it is). But this app is worse: people are stealing images of women and are putting them in extreme hardcore AI porn
