Hey there, everybody! It’s kind of crazy how rarely we write blogs these days… but we have something we want to talk about and decided to do it here : )
We know the future is coming whether we like it or not. The rapid growth of AI will make some things much easier for many people, but will also present new and crazy challenges for the rest of the world. Since we’re known mostly for our authenticity, we wanted to let you know where we stand on the issue so you know exactly what you’re seeing when you watch our content.
Here is a list of places you will never find AI:
• Our Sex Tapes Our numbered sex tapes will always be 100% authentic from now until the day we stop sharing our relationship with the world. The only editing we have ever done and will ever do is cropping, trimming, and basic image adjustments like contrast, saturation, and color balance. Even back when we were blurring faces, we did it all by hand.
• Our Messages We know many adult content creators use either human or AI assistants to respond to their subscribers. We have never done that and never will. If you’re one of the hundred people waiting for Diana to respond on OnlyFans, you know there isn’t a bot helping us out 😂 So if you've ever sent us a message and received a reply from Diana on OF or YouTube, or a reply from Damien on reddit or over email, that was really us at the keyboard, and it always will be.
• All Written Copy We are both writers. Damien wrote a handful of novels in his previous life, and you already know we collaborated to write a book! We did all that before AI, and we won’t start using it now : )
• Medium-Format Photography We recently dropped a series of film photographs we’ve been taking on our vacations. Again, basic editing tools will be used for touch-ups, but never anything more.
We also want to make it clear that we are not actually anti-AI! We’re both intrigued by the potential good AI can bring to the world, while simultaneously being cautious about the risks. In our personal lives, we used Claude Opus to read Diana’s entire genome and it has given us an understanding of her health issues that brought us both to tears. While we have plenty of skepticism, we will not deny its usefulness.
These are the places where AI has shown up in our content:
• Diana’s Photo Sets We only recently realized that some of the simple tools we use to touch up our pics use AI-assisted editing. Diana has talked several times about how our videos are 100% authentic, but our photos are filled with all kinds of staged artifice like makeup, costumes, filters, and blemish removal in post. We’ve even shared a couple “before and after” comparisons to show the difference. Nobody has ever asked or complained, but we just want to be clear that this artifice technically includes assistance from older versions of AI.
• Website Imagery If you clicked around our old website, you saw several "animated" pictures of us together. These were all normal photos edited with a phone app that claimed to use AI. This was about four years ago, and while we don't regret playing around in the early stages of photo generation, we only have one on the current iteration of our site, and have no plans to add any in the future.
• Behind the Scenes Damien has used Claude to help automate the creation of our Soft Archive chapters, as well as the newest versions of our websites. This is our favorite use of AI, and what we consider the most defensible. Two years ago, this site would have taken resources that only the big porn companies could afford. Now Damien can sit at home in his boxers and meet the same challenges for only $20 a month. We consider this to be a huge win for small businesses of all kinds, as well as individuals with big dreams.
So far, that is the full extent of how we’ve interacted with this new technology, and we'll continue to be transparent about its use in our work.
We know there's nothing we can do to stop AI-generated performers from becoming more and more prevalent in porn. What we *can* do is commit to being a human, AI-free alternative.
We love you all,
Diana and Damien ✨
