And to be abundantly clear here, I’m not personally anti-AI by any means. My job heavily involves AI, I heavily use Copilot and Chat GPT in my daily life, am pretty convinced by the “AI training should be treated as fair use” arguments and support the unaligned / open source AI efforts. I think AI is the future, and models like these will probably get good enough for most uses eventually, but that time has not yet come.

And re: AI and the inability to deal with material that contains nudity. There are actually good arguments on both sides to be made here. While I agree that not letting us recognize such pictures is a form of discrimination and treating disabled people as “second class”, not training AI on such images does actually make some sense. AI does make mistakes, and there are large swaths of society that would be very unhappy if their children had access to a tool that would occasionally produce very erotic responses, particularly when fed completely “innocent” images or prompts.
