Before and After

I remain conflicted on the topic of AI and femdom content. On one hand, I do like the fact people are producing interesting new material. For example, the image below by VelvetLash (who I’ve featured here before). I love this image and it’s not the kind of thing you’d see in regular femdom content. Medical and bondage material certainly exists, but this feels like something new and worthwhile.

On the other hand the sheer amount of AI dreck filling up sites is depressing. It’s so easy to pump out hundreds of variations on a theme. There’s a danger that any creative examples like this one will be buried beneath a tsunami of identikit Nvidia dommes.

Thinking about it tonight put me in mind of Low Background Steel. That’s an odd connection, but hear me out. If you’re making sensitive laboratory grade radiation devices, you need to use steel made prior to the late 1940’s. That’s because later steel is contaminated by airborne particles from nuclear testing. This uncontaminated steel can be collected from old shipwrecks or other pre-war steel construction. I wonder if in the future we’ll think about imagery having a similar before and after time. Images shown to be published pre 2024 (or thereabouts) will be considered differently than anything later. Post the AI explosion, we’ll always have visual contamination to keep in mind.

  1. I believe that a significant source of pre 1945 steel is in the North Sea at Scapa Flow where the German fleet was scuttled following the First World War. I love weird facts like this and a similar situation occurs after Thomas Midgely discovered that adding lead to fuel made internal combustion engines more efficient. Scientists can use the concentration of lead in samples to date them. He also discover that adding CFCs to refrigeration units made them work better so he is responsible for 2 of the biggest enviromental disasters around.

    1. The German High Seas fleet is interesting. I knew the scuttling story (huge fan of Robert Massie’s two books on this area – Dreadnaught and Castles of Steel), but I hadn’t realized how much was salvaged later – https://www.scapaflowwrecks.com/history/salvage.php
      It seems like a lot of the ships have been removed, but there are a few left in deep waters and you’re right, they have used those for acquiring low background steel (at least according to wikipedia).

      Thomas Midgely is definitely a cautionary tale. Never know exactly how you’ll be treated by posterity !
