None of this is true. It’s not a legal problem.
Every single time OpenAI comes out with something, they dress it up as a huge threat, either to society or to themselves. Everyone falls for it. Then someone else comes along, quietly replicates it, and poof! No threat! Isn’t it incredible how that works?
There are already a bunch of dalle replicas, including ones hosted openly and uncensored by huggingface. They’re not facing huge legal or PR problems, and they’re not out of business.
- mrtranscendence 5y agoThe DALL-E replicas on hugging face are not sophisticated enough to generate credibly realistic images of the kind that would generate bad PR. I suspect the moment it becomes possible for a pedophile to request, and receive, a photorealistic image of a child being abused there will be bad PR for whatever company facilitates it. Or consider someone who wants to generate and distribute explicit photos of someone else without their permission. Is it a legal issue? I'm not sure, though I believe that cartoon child porn is not legal in the US (or is at least a legal gray area). Regardless, I sympathize with OpenAI not wanting to enable such behavior.
