UK Trial: Pornhub's Chatbot Halts Millions from Accessing Child Abuse Content (www.wired.com)

A trial program conducted by Pornhub in collaboration with UK-based child protection organizations aimed to deter users from searching for child abuse material (CSAM) on its website. Whenever CSAM-related terms were searched, a warning message and a chatbot appeared, directing users to support services. The trial reported a significant reduction in CSAM searches and an increase in users seeking help. Despite some limitations in data and complexity, the chatbot showed promise in deterring illegal behavior online. While the trial has ended, the chatbot and warnings remain active on Pornhub's UK site, with hopes for similar measures across other platforms to create a safer internet environment.

Did it? Or did it make them look elsewhere?

The amount of school uniform, braces, pigtails and step-sister porn on Pornhub makes me think they want the nonces to watch.

Also, I'm curious about false positives

I kind of want to trigger it to see what searches it reacts to, but at the same time I don't want my IP address on a watchlist.
