A new AI -powered web tool seems tailor-made to help teens get around age-verification laws online.
OnlyFake is a website using AI technology to cheaply generate images of fake IDs.
The tool even gives the appearance that the ID card is laying on a fluffy carpet, as if someone has placed it on the floor.
If fake IDs are perceived as a big enough problem, we will see elaborate identity-checking endeavors start taking off.
But even if teens aren't able to get around age verification laws, they'll find alternatives.
They'll just utilize platforms that don't technically fall under social media, like chat services, or private web forums.
