Surely there’s an option between “drop major client” and “punish the person pointing out problems”

Google “age of consent laws” and you’ll see that some are below 18 and some are at 18. Since I don’t know which geography we’re talking about, I go with 18.

Underlining “fact” doesn’t make something a fact. Referencing laws does.

Nope. In those locations it’s fine.

Where is the tech?

We won’t have any

Hey.

I’ve been in tech for 20 years. I know python, Java, c#. I’ve worked with tensorflow and language models. I understand this stuff.

You absolutely could train an AI on safe material to do what you’re saying.

Stable diffusion and openai have not guaranteed that they trained their AI on safe materials.

It’s like going to buy a burger, and the restaurant says “We can’t guarantee there’s no human meat in here”. At best it’s lazy. At worst it’s abusive.

This. Fines should be percentage of wealth. Otherwise they’re just a sticker price on breaking the law.

I didn’t say they shouldn’t fuck, feisty pants. I said they can’t consent. Consent is a legal term.

They can and should fuck as much as they want. They just can’t provide consent.

Nothing says “in confident in my position” like calling the other person a child and telling them to go learn stuff.

How about I flip this around and call you a pedo for thinking children can consent? Maybe your whole argument is a justification for your desires?

See how stupid that makes me sound?

The real money is in AWS, azure,GCP. No one cares about your iPad. Tariff the big 3 hosting providers and see how quickly shit hits the fan.

Context is important I guess. So two things.

Is something illegal if it’s not prosecuted?

Is it CSA if the kid is 9 but that’s marrying age in that country?

If you answer yes, then no, then we’ll not agree on this topic.

So… Exactly how it was 20 years ago. Kids Those Days used AIM and Yahoo Messenger instead of slack and discord.

universally condemned

There are a few countries that would disagree

I think that’s exactly what they do. Curation at the quantities that they’re working at would require an army.

If you’re selling a service, I expect you to know where your parts come from and what’s in it.

The April fools joke

AI models are trained on the open Internet. Not curated. Open Internet has horrible things.

Open AI just scours the Internet. 100% chance it’s come across someone illegal and horrible. They don’t pre-approve its training data.

If you think that AI is only trained on legal images, I can’t convince you otherwise.
