7k... WTF. Thank you for your service (talking to the bullet).

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

7K is what Switch 3 games will all run at.

And the haters will tell you there's no target demographic for AI.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 10 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Even before its existence, AI was almost guaranteed to appeal exclusively to pedophiles, zoophiles, taboo fetishists and conmen.

Avoid jail with this one easy trick

[–] SirSamuel@lemmy.world 15 points 2 weeks ago

I honestly was trying to figure out when 7K overtook 4K, and what bullshit resolution was next.

Then I realized it was seven thousand images of CSAM.

Nothing of value was lost

I just hope that she recovers from the trauma

Speedrunning pedophilia.

~~Thankfully no innocents were harmed.~~

To be clear, damage was certainly done, I’m Just glad he didn’t actually get a hold of the victim in question.

[–] femtek@lemmy.blahaj.zone 32 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

Ehhh, physically harmed, if I learned that my step father was doing that and then killed himself I think I would have some issues to talk about with a therapist.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

That’s obviously what I meant.

But, yeah, it’s Grok. The chances of getting that shit scrubbed from Elon’s private backups is pretty low.

[–] XLE@piefed.social 8 points 2 weeks ago

My gut reaction was "good" too, until I read the rest of the article. I didn't factor in that a traumatized family would have been inevitable, but that was the worst outcome for them. What a selfish ass, even to the end.

[–] curbstickle@anarchist.nexus 7 points 2 weeks ago

Family is ruined.

Her mom was devastated about her husband killing himself.

She had to deal with the thousands of images generated based off a picture of her at age 11.

There is a lot of harm here.

Grok in paedophile non-shock.

How has X not been sued into the ground?

I'm not a big fan of CSAM laws but this sseems pretty horrific

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 9 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

How has X not been sued into the ground?

the president of the usa is a known child rapist and probably trafficker elected twice to office… do you really think anyone in the gov cares about child porn made by one of the president's best buds AI?

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip -2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

This has nothing to do with Trump

X can be held liable regardless of what Trump may or may not be guilty of

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

liable before whom? the racist, hand picked by a pedophile, SCOTUS?

[–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago) (1 children)

The supreme court only really decides matters if constitutional law. Furthermore, for a case to get to the supreme court you need a bunch of the lower courts to have conflicting rulings. The supreme court only hears a tiny amount of cases per year so I don't see why this would reach the top.

This would almost certainly be decided by a lower court. A ruling then could be appealed but unless there is something major in the case a decision by the lower court would stand.

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

until it's apealed and SCOTUS rules that making chil porn is freedom o& speech for example…

[–] Manjushri@piefed.social 4 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

It's not just X, if you read the whole article.

That report did not call out X or xAI, but it did suggest that it’s likely common for AI firms to avoid sharing information on AI CSAM that cops can use to make arrests. For another example, NCMEC noted that Amazon AI services submitted the vast majority of tips (1.1 million), and none of those tips gave “actionable information” that law enforcement could use to identify perpetrators.

Emphasis mine. These companies are willfully hiding the identity of the perpetrators from the police, probably because of the fear of prosecution for their own culpability in the crimes. Honestly, this is really a massive conspiracy among AI companies to profit off of child sexual exploitation. Not only are they providing the means for the people to commit the crimes, they are actively hiding the identity of the perpetrators.

Edited for formatting.
