Where should I publish AI videos?

[psychtales]

In the last year I created thousands of erotic mind control videos with AI. Most of them are 5-10 seconds each.

About third of the videos have nudity, the rest is not nude and no explicit sex but highly suggestive. Some of them revolve around a story, others are just exploring a world with a certain theme. My favorite themes are some kind of virus or a similar infectious mechanism that transforms people both mentally and physically.

I created those videos for my own, shall we say, personal entertainment. and so far I'm the only one who watched those videos, but I think other people could enjoy them too. I don't need to make money out of them. If I can make few bucks just so I can pay back for all the credits I used to make them, great. But that's not the point. The important part is to reach other people who may enjoy watching them.

What would be the best way to publish such videos?

[fembotheather]

There are a lot of them on deviantart and there's room for more.

For 10 second videos I agree with FBH, DA is a good option. Nudity is not a problem if you click the mature switch when you post them.

[psychtales]

Thanks, I'll look into DA. BTW: What would be better alternative for longer videos?

I do consider working on longer videos soon.

[Tinavamp]

Depending on how much longer Dazz1212 has a few videos on DA that are 17 minutes long. For presentation I would think of YouTube. Although with nudity you may hit some resistance. Vimeo is another option, especially if you were looking at making some money from your videos.

[psychtales]

How about using Youtube (esp. shorts) or Facebook reels for my suggestive but non-nude content?  Would they allow it, or do I risk violating some of their other guidelines? Two thirds of my videos are non-nude. I've been working recently with Google Omni flash, and I'm getting really good results for non-nudes.

I had a similar question myself. I've uploaded a few of the non-nudity ones to Youtube, but I have a lot more that I think are worth sharing.

I took a look at my own account, it seems I need to "upgrade to Core membership" if I want to post videos.

I have watched non-sexual but suggestive accounts get banned on YT. I still miss the VS Seven account and the various space girls videos. They were very suggestive but definitely didn't have nudity.

Yeah, that's very frustrating. Fortunately, the videos that you upload stay up even after you cancel your core membership (it lets you pay for just one month). Or a subscriber can gift you one, btw.

It'd be convenient if there was something like Imgur or ImgBB for shortform video - ie, being able to quickly upload a small file & get shareable links to it, without having to go through a whole process of creating & maintaining an account

[Dazz1212]

I found D/A the easiest to use for my videos BUT you do have to pay for core to be able to upload videos. If you have subscribers then the core will pay for itself, if you are just posting for fun then you'll have to cover the cost yourself, or as mentioned above someone can gift you it.
For the videos you can upload any length as long as it stays below 1gb. They frown upon hardcore things and bodily fluids so best to avoid but nudity and a little fondling/kissing action appears to be OK.

I wonder if it would be ok to simply upload the videos on Cloudflare R2 or something like that.

I had been publishing art on Deviant Art and had many followers. I made sure to add Mature to most of my images. That didn't prevent them from deleting my account. I can still go on but cant show my work. I have instead began posting on the Collective. Just be carefull with Deviant Art is what I am warning to what happens on that site

[The Thor]

I previously tried posting them on Hypnohub, but that wasn't allowed. It has somewhat confusing rules about AI generated content.

Any idea why they deleted the account? Or any though what it could've been even if they didn't state a reason?

[hypnospects]

If you used AI to alter real people or celebrities they will boot you off without warning

[hypfan]

No reason given just my account had been deleted. I attempted to contact them to ask but did not receive any reason back to me. I did not do celebs or real people. Just used the AI engine on their own servers. I even put in Mature in most of my pics.

[raphaelsdream]

These companies will never be consistent and fair. In part because they're 'moderated' by AI, which can't be consistent, as we all now.

I don't know if 'copyright' is a sensible term to apply to what we make, but regardless, if you want ownership, kudos, or money, you have to keep your goals limited and work out how to control that yourself, because no website corp treats anyone very well.

[Tinavamp]

DA’s business model now to encourage people to create AI content and collect commissions when the sell it. I’ve know several people who woke up one morning and found their accounts completely gone for no apparent reason. I suspect that have at least some of your content behind a paywall may help to keep you from losing your account, but it hasn’t been proven as far as I know. If DA isn’t making any money off you, they have no motive to keep you around. As others have said they use AI bots as their censors. And never give a reason for why they delete any accounts.

[apropos]

Unfortunately there's no platform I'm aware of which can't (and won't) suddenly delete your account without bothering to tell you the reason.

DeviantArt seems to me to be the least worst of them.

Their mature art policy seems to change on the regular, but it's always kept here: https://www.deviantartsupport.com/kb/en/article/what-is-deviantarts-policy-around-sexual-erotic-and-fetish-themes

Right now it says "Zero tolerance for things which are difficult to distinguish from non-consensual including (long list of mind control tropes)."

That's why I've got big note on my page which says "This is all a fantasy of consensual non-consent" (which they allow with the appropriate warnings and tags), same as Mind Control Theatre do at the top of all of their releases. Followed by "Please contact me if you think there are any problems and I'll take it down immediately."

Might work. Might not. Has so far.

It's a risk, but I'm using DA as my main place to post images and videos, because I'm not aware of anywhere better.

[apropos]

Also everything's marked as Mature, and anything pornographic according to their definition is behind a paywall.

[raphaelsdream]

It's legal verbiage to cover their asses. They don't mind porn in the slightest. They don't mind anything except perhaps CSAM.

The hypocrisy is frustrating, but, well, it's like Norm McDonald said...

[Wendall]

As others have said they use AI bots as their censors.

I wonder if this has caused issues for people still doing manips the "old-fashioned" way, photoshopping the eyes on an existing photo and adding a dangling pocketwatch in the frame so it looks like the girl is staring at it.

I have to assume censorship is mostly downstream of societal pushback against AI deepfakes & non-con fetishes more generally, rather than MC specifically. Hypnosis is sitll a niche enough & fantastical enough fetish that, even though in theory it might be the ultimate domination kink (indeed a lot of it seems to revolve around the totally abstracted concept of one person imposing their will to such a degree that the other person no longer even has a will of their own), many normal people have never even considered it, or if they have it's in this very jokey way like "haha, that guy's into hypnosis. oooohhh, you are getting vvvvvvery sleeeepy...."

They're taking payments from people, so they mind about what Mastercard and/or VISA will care about if they notice it.

You're agreeing with me, right? On the internet it's hard to tell. Yeah, this is about money and power.

Mastercard and Visa, like age verification, child protection, voter ID, cellphone registration, paying for bandwidth, and a few more tactics, have been a side-door that authoritarians and authorities of various types have been using to bring more of the internet under control. Globally, not limited to any one particular place - I can think of examples from every continent.

... well, except Antarctica. 

Kunlun and McMurdo Stations have wild parties together. (Especially the Marvel nerds who, like me, said 'There's an Antarctic Base named from Iron Fist?')
