VNs and comics dominate the adult entertainment zone. Every Fuck95-type site has a forum for downloading games, and a forum for downloading comics. Makes sense. Just about anyone can write (though most badly), and there are products for making visuals that are accessible to amateurs.
Music and singing is hard.
But with AI, is the world going to expand? One thing that I predict is the possibility of adult music videos. AI solutions exist for making lyrics, creating musical tracks, simulate singing, lip syncing images, and all that. I think setting popular or original songs to adult video content could become a thing.
Think of "Maneater" by Hall and Oates...
Thoughts?
I guess people might make them- once AI voicing gets much closer to something you could call "good"- but I don't really see them getting that big. Not like adult games/comics are. Games and comics are an inherently installment-based business model- dev releases an update or chapter once a month, fans pay what's basically a subscription fee once a month, somebody leaks the download link to a pirate site once a month, etc. And it kinda works for everybody, devs work the project and fans get invested in it on a long-term basis.
Hard to see that working the same way for music videos- I could imagine an explicit animated version of, say, Lolita by Lana Del Rey being incredibly hot, but it's still ~4 minutes of content and then that's it. I'm not eagerly waiting to see what happens next because the next thing is an entirely different music video for an entirely different song. And even if the creator in question makes really good adult music videos, how likely am I to subscribe to his Patreon for a 4-5 minute video once month?
Maybe I'm wrong, I dunno, just don't really see it taking off on the same scale as AVNs have.
I think it's a fair point that longer-form media like porn videos and AVN's will be much more popular, but that doesn't mean we won't be seeing really good pornographic music videos produced through AI at some point. My guess is
within the next 5 years, given how the technology has progressed in the past 18 months. I first got an image generator working in June of 2023, and compared to what's out there today it's like I had a Ford Model T and now I have a 1964 Ford Mustang. It's so much more advanced, but there's still so much technology that will be invented over the next few years.
I have worked in the media technology sector for several years, and it's a pretty firm rule that most modern IT technology has deep roots in porn. Internet bandwidth? Downloading porn. Anti-Virus? Because you're surfing porn sites. Disk storage? Gotta save the porn. AI image generation? Check out CivitAI and tell me there aren't very smart people pushing the boundaries of AI porn technology.
What I think would need to happen:
1) While the music generation is getting pretty good (I'd say 7/10 score) where AI struggles is writing lyrics that aren't terrible. ChatGPT5 or a competitor could resolve this.
2) Video generation (On local systems) is currently facing two big issues:
a) AI video is generally short clips at 4-8 seconds long. You would want porn scenes to be 20-30 seconds before you change perspective at the least.
b) Part of the reason they're so short is the AI goes off the rails after a few seconds and starts adding limbs and twisting bodies or changing the room. But someone will fix this problem.
More could be done on "Professional" systems, but those would be less likely to invest in the time to make porn. It's the army of hobbyists that will make it a reality.
There are some cool tools out there already, one that can sync the audio to motion, and another that can sync the mouth movements to speech.
I'm not into pop, rap or hiphop, so even if ai will be abe to make music at some point, my genres will be impossible.
Suno probably has you covered:
You must be registered to see links
And the vocals keep getting better. I did my first Suno song last summer, and since then they have released a new version that's generally better (but more generic IMHO) and people keep working on it. It's not there yet, but it will be. It's like watching The Last Starfighter and saying "Computer Graphics are neat, but they will never look good enough to replace special effects." Just give it some time.
