Why would Elon block a bill banning AI-generated child porn?
(discuss.online)
AI slop is good for something after all...
Felt like one of the very few times grabbing a Gen AI image was appropriate lol.
Because building a tool that can do anything is easier than building a tool that can't do evil.
It's the gun argument, where they absolve themselves and pass all responsibility to the end user.
This is the grownup and correct answer imo
It may be the grownup answer, but given the absolute prevelence of baby rape amongst the epstein class.. We can wager that its not the correct answer, because it is stopping them from accessing a kind of baby rape (that was probably generated thanks to hundreds of thousands of images of actual baby rape being used in training).
because lets face it, Theres been no repercussions for any of it thus far, Why would they expect there to be any in the future.
I'm not saying I don't think it's possible, it's just that training models is not done by just Elon and a laptop on the sofa with a box of tissues - it's probably a small army of professionals that would all be aware of and have access to child porn - I just don't think (or don't want to believe?) there's no one who would blow the whistle
I just don’t think (or don’t want to believe?) there’s no one who would blow the whistle
Epstein ran a child sex ring for at least 20 years, and for most of that time we heard almost nothing umtil the end.. and largely, i imagine, because trumps an idiot in decline.
People come forward and then they are silenced.
In the UK before AI even existed our laws covered this and make it illegal.
Afaik loli is also illegal and considered CSAM in the US so I have no idea why AI images wouldnt be similarly illegal
Logically, I mean. Practically, like most things in America, I know the answer is "because rich people want it that way, fuck you"
He literally begged Epstein to let him show up on the Epstein child sex trafficking island. It doesn't take a genius to answer the title.
Is Elon the only person on the planet who wanted to and could afford to go to pedo island but got turned down?
That was in the same email conversation where Epstein mentioned the helicopter.
So it's entirely possible he did visit the island, just that there's no evidence recorded in a log of who went via helicopter (or, at least, none made public), unlike that for the 'Lolita Express', for example.
As least, that's what I believe.
I still find it kind of funny that even the worst human beings on the face of the Earth can't tolerate him. Fuck Musk.
the entire point of AI is to remove accountability from the process. if there are consequences, theres no reason to use AI and Elon's investments are wasted.
TEMU Lex Luther can fuck right off
This image seems like misleading bull shit. This seems to be the law referenced: https://apnews.com/article/minnesota-artificial-intelligence-nudification-x-elon-musk-deepfake-131184be939d540de093b567b12c9e16
It makes companies liable for people using ai for nudification (which of course includes children). Musk argues the law is a bit to far reaching ( claims the law considers some body parts, that are commonly displayed in public, as private parts and also that the company can get in trouble for people nudifying themselves).
I don't know how legitimate Musk's concerns are, but the image is extremely misleading.
Yeah, its not naked kids specifically but "nudification" in general. And what's considered private? A woman's chest? OK but how far down? Stuff like that.
I'd imagine Google or Apple or any tech/AI company would do the same to protect their product or whatever. But they make it seem like this was a tool Elon specifically designed so he can see naked kids.
Elon's under the most scrutiny because Grok is the least restricted LLM. Of course om reasonably worried that they are blocking this for less savory reasons.
What do you mean by least restricted?
Grok will do a lot of things that Claude or gemini or OpenAI will refuse to do for you (at least without a lot of prodding)
And this is why whether it's Reddit or this site it doesn't make a difference. Clickbait and dumb people always dominate the conversation and nuance is immediately thrown out the window because nuance does not translate well on the internet when you are trying to gather points.
The worst part is that this guy actually has endless things you can point to to show what a scumbag he is but yet there has to be stuff like this that delegitimizes opposition to him.
Fuck that, he should be 100% liable if he sells a machine that is ised to make child porn wtf you mean clickbait. This is the only way to stop it, otherwise it's going to happen because the companies will make money off it.

The damages are brought up in a civil trial, so I guess while someone could bring a case to trial for nudifying themselves, I imagine it'd be tossed out immediately:
An individual depicted in an image or video that was nudified in violation of this section may bring a civil action in district court against the person who violated this section
These are the body parts listed:
"Intimate parts" includes the primary genital area, groin, inner thigh, buttocks, or breast of a human being.

Exactly when again is the wildest party on your friends’ island, Elon?
Elon was friend with Jeff but Jeff wasn't friends with him. Kinda awkward.

He wants it banned for two reasons: he's a pedophile and twatter makes him $$$ off child porn.
I'm more concerned about the origins of data used by Musk's Company to train the models !
Many auto moderation tools use actual csam as reference so probably from there if i had to guess.

We must PROTECT the Children by ~~OUTLAWING Child Porn Creators!~~ ALLOWING Child Porn Creators to know EXACTLY where Children are ALL The time via ID Verifications!
because high percentage of people using grok/ X are pedos themselves.
To be fair, what's the point of the bill? Child porn is already illegal. It's like the bills banning non-citizens from voting.
While they're at it, why not ban murder, theft, and drunk driving?
Historically, bills like this that appear to be so obviously "good" are often traps that contain unrelated, nefarious shit. Like hiding a ban on abortion inside a bill that's supposed to be about banning something everyone hates.
I'm highly skeptical of the bill but at the same time I wouldn't put it past Elon to be against it for all the wrong reasons 🤷

CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material), not child porn. Child porn implies they are complicit or that its a genre of porn. CSAM confirms that it exists exclusively to abuse children and they were abused in the making.
