Does it? Or is it just bonus content for pedophiles? Just because they’re now getting thing B doesn’t mean they’re not also still getting thing A.
Comment on AI-created child sexual abuse images ‘threaten to overwhelm internet’
EatYouWell@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Honestly, even though I find the idea abhorrent, if it prevents actual children from being abused…
I mean, the content is going to be generated one way or another.

Your argument sounds very similar to when people argue that video games promote violence and criminal activity.

Yeah, you play Teris at kid, then you become series killer with a brick in adult.

I’m guessing they could easily support this with a simple premise: Examine a legal fetish, which AI can generate images of, and ask people who generate those images if their consumption of real images have fallen as a result. Also check if actual real life participation in it has been reduced due to the ability to generate the scenarios privately.
It will be skewed if the fetish is legal, since participating won’t land you in jail. But there may be some out there that present other risks besides legal ones to help with that.

Where does the fact some people will happily jerk it exclusively to anime titty come into this, I wonder?
Brahminman@iusearchlinux.fyi 11 months ago
It doesn’t? They’re a fucking edge case and if you only jerk it to anime then nobody will ever be harmed in the production of the port you watch, so nobody should care or read too much into it

Also the models were trained on real images, every image these tools create are directly related to the rape of thousands or even tens of thousands of children.
Real or not these images came from real children that were raped in the worst ways imaginable

I don’t think that’s the case
MTK@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Why not?

You don’t need the exact content you want in order to train a model (Lora) for SD. If you train on naked adults, and clothed kids, it can make some gross shit. And there are a lot more of those safe pictures out there to use for training. I’d bet my left leg that these models were trained that way.

But the poor algorithms that are forced to generate the content!
