Don’t pay any attention to that kinda stupid comment. Anyone posting that kind of misinformation about AI is either trolling or incapable of understanding how generative AI works.
You are right it is a victimless crime (for the creation of content). I could create porn with minions without using real minion porn to put the randomnest example I could think of. There’s the whole defamation thing of publishing content without someone’s permission but that I feel is a discussion irrelevant of AI (we could already create nasty images of someone before AI, AI just makes it easier). But using such content for personal use… It is victimless. I have a hard time thinking against it. Would availability of AI created content with unethical themes allow people to get that out of their system without creating victims? Would that make the far riskier and horrible business of creating illegal content with real unwilful people disappear? Or at the very least much more uncommon? Or would make people more willing to consume thw content creating a feelibg of fake safety towards content previously illegal? There’s a lot of implications that we should really be thinking about and how it would affect society, for better or worse…
In every post I’ve seen of the change in Firefox TOU there’s been people asking for alternatives and proposing chromium based browsers as alternatives (even chrome). I just can’t grasp how anyone escaping Firefox because of these changes would willingly go to any based in chromium… But so many are just doing that. It seems many people using Firefox are just following recommendations and this whole issue with Firefox might hurt a lot more than any one thinks having a free web.
