Sina Laubenstein

Sina Laubenstein appears in How AI nudify apps are proliferating on social media as the Institute for Strategic Dialogue researcher explaining how AI nudify tools spread through mainstream online infrastructure. She says her team found 181 websites offering tools that generate nudified images or videos from real people’s photos, and she links their visibility to YouTube, [[Twitter|X]], Facebook, Instagram, app stores, and payment channels.

Her role in the wiki is to make AI Non-Consensual Intimate Image Abuse an ecosystem problem rather than only a content-moderation problem. She argues that enforcement should look beyond posts and ads to app-store distribution, Abuse Payment Infrastructure, crypto intermediaries, banking oversight, and California legal pressure on Apple and Google.
