'Thank you so much for sharing,' says a member of an online forum, discussing tips on how to create your own version of artificial intelligence 'chatbot' ChatGPT.
Are there any plans to share your previous models?'
It sounds innocent enough, but this is just one of dozens of dark web pedophile groups exchanging advice on how to build 'uncensored' chatbots that can produce reams of child porn.
Chatbots are computer programs that use artificial intelligence (AI) to interact with humans. They have become increasingly sophisticated in recent years, with users able to ask them to generate lengthy pieces of text, or create life-like images.
And now predators are exploiting advances in the technology to create horrific, highly-realistic child abuse material.
It's been made possible after some tech firms released the code used to create their AI programs to to the public.
Their aim was to democratize the technology, but they have also opened Pandora's box.
'Uncensored' AI
Chatbots made by firms such as OpenAI, Microsoft and Google come with rigorous safeguards, designed to prevent them from being used to produce malicious content.
But in February, Meta - the tech giant which owns Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp - decided to make their code public, allowing amateur tech heads to rip out these filters.
Smaller tech companies followed suit.
Supporters of this 'open-source' AI say it blasts a hole through corporate control and accelerates innovation by making this powerful technology available to entrepreneurs, academics and scientists.
Meta - owned by Mark Zuckerberg - claims its move 'is a positive force to advance technology'.
Some models have been used to discover new pharmaceuticals or pesticides, for example, but they are also open to abuse.
YouTubers with more than 100,000 subscribers have posted tutorials explaining how to create...

Figures. Dork Zuckerturd. How the hell does that scumbag avoid lawsuits? So many people especially the elderly get scammed every year by scammers using Facebook and then we have him helping Joe Biden to the tune of half a billion dollars creating massive problems to not on the USA but world wide as well and the dork skates.
What I find fascinating about this AI is how they can take a song and have the singer sound like Elvis, or anybody else. Like this one, Elvis singing the Queen song “Crazy little thing called love”. How the hell do they do this??

So does that mean people who hate blacks can make AI videos of lynchings? How about AI rape and snuff videos?
All pedophiles should be lined up against a wall, castrated without anesthesia, and subsequently shot. Or the American Mary treatment. Just sayin’.
The problem is is that since children can NEVER consent, and the adults will eventually victimize a real child (statistics and real child abusers say this), sources which normalize it have to be quashed. They can also use images of REAL children, whom they may know, to generate the abuse images. This adds further temptation.
They will never keep their hands to themselves.
In 2005, when the 2nd KING KONG remake came out, they said it took 11 years to get CGI hair to look realistic. I realized, at that time, that the coding to do so was born and then, irreversible - only to be improved from there on out and more realistic with each iteration. Today, we are now seeing new applications at exponential, light speed. We will be a different world with new problems in only three short years...if we survive that far.
Fellas with compassion and vision.
There is also tremendous progress in taking old black and white historical movies and adding color and smoothing out the movie. Pretty soon they will make these movies look like they were shot yesterday.
That’s a great point! I’ve already seen a few colorized WW2 and 1900 newsreels that looked like they were shot in the 80s as they were so vivid and clean.
It was “Skynet’’.
You have a point. The actual federal statute only applies to porn involving actual children
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/2252
If the porn only involves adults pretending to be underage, or is created without using any humans at all, then it’s not prosecutable, per the above statute.
For example, a cartoon or painting depicting such acts, if created without using actual children.
The source has been released. People can download the source to their home PC, do what they want, then erase the evidence.
Slasher films like the Texas Chainsaw series are legal, because no actual rape or killing was involved. I would imagine that AI generated stuff would be similarly legal.
