'Nudify' Apps That Use AI to 'Undress' Women in Photos Are Soaring in Popularity

Apps and websites that use artificial intelligence to undress women in photos are soaring in popularity, according to researchers. In September alone, 24 million people visited undressing websites, the social network analysis company Graphika found. Many of these undressing, or "nudify," services use popular social networks for marketing, according to Graphika. For instance, since the beginning of this year, the number of links advertising undressing apps increased more than 2,400% on social media, including on X and Reddit, the researchers said. The services use AI to recreate an image so that the person is nude.
