I actually don't think this is shocking or something that needs to be "investigated." Other than the sketchy website that doesn't secure user's data, that is.
Actual child abuse / grooming happens on social media, chat services, and local churches. Not in a one on one between a user and a llm.
It's the "burn that witch" reaction.
See how they hate pedophiles and not child rapists.
The crowd wants to feel its power by condemning (and lynching if possible) someone.
I'd rather want to investigate those calling for "investigation" and further violation of privacy of people who for all we know have committed no crime.
That's about freedom of speech and yelling "fire" in a crowded theater and thousand hills radio, you know the argument.
Why tf are there so many people okay with people roleplaying child sexual abuse AT ALL??? Real or fake KEEP AN EYE ON ALL OF THEM.
I dont care if its a real child or a fucking bot, that shit is disgusting, and the AI is the reason how some pedos are able to generate cp of children without having to actually get their hands on children.
The fact someone will look at this and go "Yea but what about the REAL child rapists huh??" Is astounding. Mfcker if a grown ass adult is willing to make a bot that is promoted to act like a horny toddler, then what exactly is stopping them from looking at real children that way.
Keep in mind, Im not talking about Lolicon, fuck that. I'm talking about people generating images of realistic or semirealistic children to use as profiles for sex bots. I'm talking about AI. I'VE ACTUALLY SEEN PEOPLE DO THIS, someone actually did this with my character recently. They took the likeness of my character and began generating porn with it using prompts like "Getting fcked on the playground, wet psy, little girl, 6 year old, 2 children on playground, slut..."
Digital or not this shit still affects people, it affects people like me. These assholes deserve to be investigated for even attempting this kinda shit on the clear net.
And before you ask, the character that belonged to me looks really young because I look really young. I got severe ADHD which makes me mentally stunted or childish, and that gets reflected in my OCs or fursonas. This person took a persona, an extension of me PERSONALLY, lowered her age on purpose, and made porn of her. That fuckin hurts dude. Especially after speaking about how close these characters are to me. I'm aware it could be a troll, but honest to god, the prompt they used was demonstrably specific and detailed. Some loser online drawing kanna's feet hurts me way less than someone using AI to generate faux CP and then roleplay with those same bots or prompts. What hurts me more is that there's no restrictions on some AI's to stop people from generating images like this. I don't wanna see shit like this become commonplace or "fine" to do. Keep tabs on individuals like this, cus they VERY WELL could be using the likeness/faces of REAL children for AI CP and that's just as bad.
I think that this is ironic and a poor choice of words. It's almost a pun.
DAMN- YOU RIGHT 😭
pedophiles are bad, if you think otherwise you're pedophile enabling scum and are just as guilty as they are.
edit: I'll wear the down votes like a badge of honor if it means pedophiles that train their grooming habits against AI are branded as pedophiles.
Why tf would ANYONE want to wait until a child is raped just to do anything. What the actual fuck.
Use a tipline or do what other reputable pedo catchers do. Probe/tempt/lure them.
That's like waiting until a kid, who is showing all the signs of being a school shooter, to shoot up a school and only then will people attempt to stop them.
Americans frighten me
Me too
Relevant cover
Lmao are you out here saying we should essentially smear people for thought crimes?
would this also apply to if you are pretending to shoot people online?
Dylan Klaybold did it... Or whatever his name is.
He made a map of his school in DOOM
See, imo this is the exact kind of thinking that makes pedophilia dangerous. Most people would agree that being attracted to children is a mental illness. Most people would agree that mental illnesses should be treated by a knowledgeable professional. But pedophilia is so stigmatized that someone even admitting they have a problem, one I very much doubt most of them want to have, has people calling for them to be drawn and quartered, regardless of if they've ever actually hurt anyone.
Do I like that there's art and writing of people having fantasies about children? No, of course not. But making it impossible for people to have a safe outlet, to even talk about it with a medical professional for fear of imprisonment, death threats, or worse, makes it so these people can't even get the help they need. It's like teaching abstinence only sex ed. You're trying to get people to stop having fantasies by burying them, but it only exacerbates the issue.
Edit: lol got your downvote less than five minutes in and the whole comment edited to just say "pedophiles bad." I guess I, as you like to put it, "hit a nerve."
I personally think that pedophilia is genetic, or a chemical brain imbalance or something. There has to be something that would cause someone to do something they know that it they get caught, their life is over.
It's like Louie CK's joke from his SNL appearance. To paraphrase "I love Mounds bars, but if you told me I would be thrown in jail and raped or killed, I wouldn't eat one ever again"
I was going to add that to my argument, but i felt that it would get twisted into someone saying that gay people are pedophiles. I didn't feel like arguing that point.
There are literally tv shows about how to get away with murder. Very popular ones. Those viewers don't murder at a higher rate than others.
There's literally a drama that was on ABC called, you guessed it, "How to Get Away With Murder"
As a fiction writer, I do research on espionage, sabotage and even methods of assassination all the time. But I'm not going to make a salted bomb and nuke Jerusalem even though that is an entirely viable evil plot that may even create a net negative death toll.
True poisoners, as Agatha Christie notes, use thallium, not arsenic nor cyanide (though ricin is good if you can get it.) Thallium assassins are also self-regulating, like demolitions experts, killing off those insufficiently careful when handling the stuff.
Modern police are lazy until enough of a stink is made to find a culprit for a specific incident, which is why modern assassins targeting VIPs will find a self-radicalized desperado and point them toward the target. This is the sort of thing FBI is looking for in the investigations of Crooks and Routh. They are likely just blue suicides (or green suicides in this case) but finding a operative pointing them towards Trump would indicate an actual plot. But even if those tracks are found, it would unlikely lead to a specific identity.
I know about this not just to write fiction, but also to understand how things happen, how our fall into one party autocracy and societal collapse plays out. And yes, it means I do a lot of web searches that might excite an onlooking behavioral research agent. Sadly, they'd find I'm yet another boring false positive, though if the nation does succumb to autocracy, I'd certainly write for the resistance. FBI may not care so much about that.
We often look up creepy things just so see if we can, and we do that a lot more than because we're eager to build a bomb or fast-track our inheritance.
Wait, how would a nuke with extra radiation fallout create a net negative death toll?
Because religious fanatics have been fighting over controlling access to the holy sites for centuries now, and show no sign of slowing down.
Making the place an exclusion zone would devalue those sites, except for the most determined.
I guess making that whole area uninhabitable for decades means less wars fighting to claim it.
The saltiness comes from all the jizz.
...how would I know that?
I missed the original comment and this discussion now makes no sense. Why would you edit the content of your comment when you don't care about the points or the outrage?
I forget the details, but the long and short of it was that they were advocating for anyone found sending these prompts to an AI being put on an FBI watch list, along with something along the lines of "you'd want to know if your neighbor was doing this." Then came at least three edits about how they didn't care about downvotes.
Your psycho-pass is clouding, and your crime coefficient is well over 100.
