I was recently admonished in the comments section here for not covering gay or trans porn. In fact, the commentator actually went as far as suggesting that I should rename my site to ‘Immersive Straight Porn’! So to put the record…ahem..straight, I decided to highlight what appears to be the launch of the very first dedicated AI gay porn generator – MyDreamBoy.com.
First off though I should point out in my defence that most of the sex and porn tech news stories I post here do usually have as much relevance to gay and trans porn fans as they do for straights. I have also queried, both here and on Reddit, why there are so few gay VR porn sites (in fact, there is only one still active – VirtualRealGay). This has always surprised me, as the gay community seem to be very much ahead of the curve when it comes to the early adoption of new sex tech. And it’s a similar story for AI porn generators, with gay male images being an afterthought for many of them, if they can even generate male images at all. But that might be changing, as I discovered recently that a dedicated porn generator for gay images has launched. The team behind ‘My Dream Boy’ kindly gave me some free credit to give it a little try out.
I’d really like to be able to say that My Dream Boy is a top notch gay porn generator, and one that anybody looking to produce gay images has to join. But to be honest, although it has a lot of potential, it is very much still a work in progress.
The site has a number of different ready made dream boys, sorted by a variety of categories (as well as prompts), all relevant to gay tastes. For example, as well as different ethnic categories, you can chose ‘bear’, ‘bearded face’, and ‘muscle’. Each has a set of public AI-generated photos of themselves in different poses and settings. Each of them also has a ‘private gallery’ option, which I assume you would have to pay to access. However, I couldn’t find a model that had any photos in their private gallery.
One disappointing thing is that you cannot chat with the ready-made AI characters, only follow them for their new photos. This is surprising as most of the top porn generators have incorporated AI sex chat, and you would expect a site called ‘My Dream Boy’ to have an AI boyfriend feature. Presumably, this is because it’s a new site and the developers are working on it.
While you cannot chat with any of the AI dream boys, you can use each character as a ‘template’ to generate your own AI photos. In fact, this appears to be the only way that you can generate images. You select one to four templates for each of the face, body, penis, and ass, and then you have your own dream boy generated. He can then appear in the gallery of existing models, and others can ‘follow’ him, or use him for their own templates.
The images are almost photorealistic, but for the most part, unfortunately, slightly in the Uncanny Valley range. My attempt to generate a character using various templates produced ‘Ricardo’ and one image of his face, which did resemble the templates I had selected. The site appeared to be trying to generate a full-body image shot too, but got stuck, and eventually came back with an error message saying that the request had failed (including a typo).
On the plus side, penises appear to be rendered quite realistically, which is an area in which many of the top general Porn generators fall down. Not that I was able to generate a penis image myself. As I am converting this site into a reasonably SFW (nudity-wise, at least) site, I will not post any examples.
A premium membership of My Dream Boy costs $9.95 a month, although it is unclear to me at the present time what the advantages of a paid subscription are. Other than, I assume, more credit for dream boy generation. It’s certainly a site that I’m going to check back on every few weeks, and hopefully it will improve, and if so, I will update my thoughts on it here. In the meantime, at least it’s encouraging that we have a dedicated AI gay porn site, and hopefully more will follow.
