I keep saying that AI is deeply intertwined with rape culture. It's perpetuated by the kind of people who see the word "no" as a challenge to be overcome. It steals other people's creations and says "your body of work, my choice." Noncon is a feature, not a bug here.
"And I never say no"
We need to have a serious talk about the way "AI companion" apps not only prey on the vulnerable, but are priming their users to ignore consent and to conflate love with control.
We need AI regulations across so many sectors, but this area is particularly horrifying.

Such a strange feeling to know the US is ceding the future (such as it may be) to the rest of the world, all so a handful of tech barons and oil-igarchs can plunder our stinky, poisonous antediluvian carbon stores a little longer.
God help us all.
God help us all.

In ecology, there is a concept of an indicator species
Which is to say; the sort of species whose existence demonstrates that you are entering a healthy ecosystem.
I truly believe that consensual porn is an indicator species of living in a society with a healthy free speech culture.

"What are they supposed to do, defend NSFW creators and potentially risk getting shut down entirely, which would affect all the innocent SFW creators too?"
You know what?

A research team has successfully tested a blood substitute in animals, and human trials may not be far off. The powdered blood could help medics respond faster in a crisis.
Scientists are developing artificial blood that could save lives in emergencies

I don't follow many people on here, but why does my feed only show the few most recent posts? Is there no easy way to look back at what was posted previously other than selecting each individual person I follow?
