AI 'Nudify' Websites Are Raking in Millions of Dollars

wired.com Matt Burgess 2026-01-22 02:00:00

For years, so-called “nudify” apps and websites have mushroomed online, allowing people to create nonconsensual and abusive images of women and girls, including child sexual abuse material.

The Trump administration recently launched “Alligator Alcatraz,” a migrant detention center based in Florida whose name references the region’s native population of scaly reptilians. Americans have been left with little to do about the situation other than react with horror and amazement or, in the case of one TikToker, a desire to spin the dystopian situation into comedy gold.
