Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

This is cool after the war on everything called “porn” by platforms and payment processors. A machine that stole all your words can generate and sell “erotica” but you can’t haaa

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

a 3d render of clefairy with a sleepy cap on. she is holding onto a fuzzy purple blanket while holding onto the phone with her other hand. she is in the bedroom, cozied up in her bed, with some pillows and books on the floor, and sparkling lights to make the night peaceful.

A render of Porygon2 in a swimming pool. It is floating alongside a Psyduck floatie that is carrying a can of lemonade, along with a tube float and a ball in the pool. In the background, a few strands of palm tree leaves are visible behind the pool scene.

My local library even has a seed library— you take seeds out, and bring seeds back from what you grow!

That’s also a super handy thing in developing seeds that can stand up to local climate change!

So, gardeners, go ask your library if they have one or could start one! 🌱

Lia @liadanmakes.bsky.social · 17h

Often when I talk to people who haven't stepped into a library for a long time, they think library = books. And yeah, library = books. I love books. But we also have ebooks, for free! DVDs, Blu-ray, streaming video, audiobooks, eaudiobooks, online classes, we've got it all.

Who are you choosing as your starter in Pokémon Legends: Z-A? I’m going with Chikorita! 🍃

Don’t forget to grab one of my Lumiose City postcards. There’s only 21 left!

Get one here: ko-fi.com/s/f23e3cbd48

A flat lay of a bunch of the same postcard showcasing the back and front which features things you can find in Pokémon Legends: Z-A on Nintendo Switch such as an illustration of the Prism Tower and images of the First Partner Pokémon (Chikorita, Tepig, and Totodile).

At the bottom reads “Hello from Lumiose City” and the background features a pastry-like treat for Pokémon that was found in Pokémon X & Y called Poké Puffs.
