AI Startup Harem Token Makes Amber Sparkx the World’s First Consensually Deepfakeable Porn Star

09 April 2021 09:58, UTC

Deepfakes are videos in which the face of a person in an existing image or video is replaced with another person’s face. The end result is a video of a person doing something that they did not do. This has already been widely adopted in the adult entertainment industry with websites such as MrDeepfakes.com leading the way. One of the ethical issues with Deepfakes is that they often feature people who would not consent to having their face used in the video being created.

Deepfake technology, and its use to create media both inside and outside of adult entertainment, is not going away or becoming any less prevalent. However, that doesn’t mean there is nothing that those in the deepfake or adult entertainment industries can do to promote ethical deepfake technology that rewards performers.

To that end, “Digital Vampiress” and 2021 Cammy Awards Queen of Cams nominee Amber Sparkx is taking what she hopes will be a pioneering step for the adult industry at large by becoming the world’s first consensually deepfakeable porn star! Fans of Amber will be able to use technology pioneered by artificial intelligence startup Harem Token to deepfake Amber’s face into any video of their choice. Harem Token has pioneered a “Face Staking” model using Non-Fungible Token technology that allows anyone from adult entertainers to aspiring models to make their face available for consumers to use through their upcoming Deepfake API launch, and profit each time it is used.

ps. “O big screen, big screen on the wall, who is the most deepfakeable of them all?”
“We’re so excited to be joining forces with Amber to demonstrate to the adult entertainment industry that deepfake technology can be an asset and not just a liability. We want to build a future where performers have the ability to control and profit off of the use of their own image, and the best way to help create this future is to provide everyone with an easy system that enables them to do so. Our partnership with Amber demonstrates that this is not only possible, but profitable, and we are so excited to work with her to bring this vision to the broader adult entertainment community.”
