Jenna Ortega talks about her experience with the negative aspects of artificial intelligence.
In a recent conversation Interview Podcasts The New York Times, Wednesday Starr recalled an unpleasant experience he had on social media as a teenager, which led him to close his Twitter account, now known as X.
“I hate AI,” she said. “When you were 14, you made a Twitter account because you had to, and you loved looking at salacious edited content of yourself as a child? No. AI is scary. AI is corrupt. AI is wrong.”
As well as seeing AI-generated pornographic images of herself as a teenager, she said, “the first direct message I ever opened on my own, when I was 12, was an unsolicited photo of a man’s genitals, and that was just the beginning of what was to come.”
“I used to have a Twitter account, but people were like, ‘Oh, you need to do that, you need to create an image for yourself,’” Ortega explained. “I ended up deleting it a couple of years ago because of the inundation after the show ended. [Wednesday] “I was already in a state of confusion when these ridiculous images and photos came out, so I deleted it.”

Ortega, 21, acknowledged that she is still learning how to protect herself, especially in a profession where she is under surveillance most of the time. One thing that has helped her is to “avoid the phone as much as possible.”
“I’m always walking,” she says. “If I’m not at work or in a meeting wondering if my parents are wondering what I’m doing, I’m outside taking a walk. I’m in a garden somewhere, lying down in a field, taking a nap.”

I should be having so much fun right now. So much fun! But I’m not. But I should be. And I try to remind myself of that.”
