AI-Driven Porn: Risks, Defenses, and Remedies Classification: Public • Prepared: Oct 2025 Print Summary. AI is now deeply embedded in adult content: synthetic companions and DM chatbots monetize parasocial ties, deepfakes scale non-consensual abuse, and minors face rising exposure. Practical defenses: friction and spending limits, CBT-style habit swaps, real age-gating, provenance checks, and fast takedowns for non-consensual content (Marshall et al., 2024; Knibbs, 2024; Ajder et al., 2019; Ofcom, 2025; Thorn, 2025a).
