If I am required to do this, I am purging my Discord account immediately. I am not giving them face scans.

Hmmm. So how long before another AI is able to generate a good enough face to fool the age verification AI (or can it already)? Interesting three-legged race there.

AI models have been able to for a long time.

Edit: keep in mind this is many years old now, which is ancient in the AI world.

Welp. As soon as this gets put in place I'm out

If you have a discord account, they already know who you are. If you tried to get an account anonymously, they'd ban you and demand a phone number.

I never used discord because it was never possible to do so securely. Friends dont let friends use discord.

Use matrix or something better.

Oh shit, I gotta finish looking for that bot that will copy my discord channels and their content (pictures, links) to my matrix

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 days ago

If something like this happens, I'm setting up a Matrix room as something on the side for if people who work on the same project I do want out of this garbage.

Does anybody have any suggestions for alternatives for chats?

I use it a lot for classes (students use them) and video games.
