@arstechnica #JFC people ... really ? xAI is one of the most advanced technological advances that we as humanity have. If you want to fight child porn, how do you teach that machine to recognize it ? I guess it's chicken-egg problem all over again.
@arstechnica secondly, this #NYC place turned out to be a real shithole with all that progressive thinking. Just $.02
@arstechnica No wonder this dude tried suing Minnesota for trying to stop such heinous acts
@arstechnica
If it's trained on csam, is there any way to figure out if the creepy nudes etc it makes aren't based on csam in some way? Doesn't it poison the whole process?
@arstechnica
Surprised?
